I can't give you a specific answer in that to do so would require the area of contact, size and weight of the cheeknone, etc., so this is more of a pathology question than first aid. I can say that a crushed cheek bone typically will not result from falling down while walking, and is more frequently seen in high velocity traumas (motor vehicle accidents, falls from more than 6' or even 10'), assault with a weapon (although it can be done with hands, it's highily unusual), or other serious crush injuries. It's a serious enough kinetic impact injury that I'd expect it to be accompanied by whiplash and cervical damage.
