Car wash damaging transmission?

Car wash damaging transmission?
My 2007 drove into a car wash today, just fine. When it came out, it wouldn't move. It shifts into drive and will shift through gears...(sitting still, no speedo registering)
Acts like a broken output shaft..? If it has one. Any ideas? Anything the car wash could have caused?

Starts and runs. Won't move but acts just like a drive shaft was removed. (Except no speedo) goes in gear and shifts through them. When you put it back in park, the paw grinds then engages. When sitting in park, car will roll.
Is there an output gear or shaft at back of trans that could shear?

Is there a "rear" clutch that can electronically disengage though. Very weird that you can hear it engage in drive, and shift through all the gears while sitting still....
I'm not familliar at all with the trans...

The torque converter is attached to the wiring harness between the engine harness (7 speed) or the transmission module (5 speed).
