Once you get a tiny bit of movement, it is very possible for all of them to be loose like that. I've seen it before. It's possible you did everything right and the lug broke form fatigue, then the others loosened, but if the others were torqued properly I don't see that as entirely likely.

No short drive, alloy rims, torqued to 100. Just trusted the torque wrench.
Sounds like I'll never know.
Can I drive safely around town for a couple of days with 4 tight lug nuts. Going in on Wednesday afternoon to get all the studs on the wheel changed because they all likely took some extra stress with the loose wheel.
