 Lu,  
Sounds like your cable was in a bind...it may still 
be okay...I say chuck it up in a drill and have some one watch the speedo if it 
works you may be all right , the parts store I used to work at sold replacement 
inserts you may be able to use if your housing is okay. 
ymmv

  Cable 
  
  While I was taking the 258/904 combo. out of Gremlin #2, I had 
  a hell  of a time getting the speedometer cable out of the transmission 
   adapter piece. The TSM said that it just pulled out. Well, after 
   taking all the skin off my knuckles trying to get it out, it FINALLY 
   came out with a loud 'pop' (not usually a good sound). The spring 
   loaded cable retreated up into the cable housing quite a ways. Dumb 
   question: will I be able to fish this cable back out and use it or is 
   it shot? I already have a transmission gear set up for the 727 that I 
   want to use with this cable. Otherwise, I spring for a new cable and 
   call it done? ~Lu~
