Yes; the bomb was a double edged sword...it would end one war and prevent another one...the cold war (the cold war prevented a "hot" war). The US was already preparing for the "cold war" before WW2 even ended!

What made the cold war a war?

Well it was mainly that the USA had dropped the atomic bomb on Japan. But since the USSR hadn't been told about the dropping of the atomic bomb before hand this then increased the suspicion and tension between the USA and the USSR. This could have then potentially led to a fall-out between them and then possibly a war. Hope this helps. :)
