It sounds as if the rearend fell apart. There is a lock inside the rearend, it breaks (quite common)and then the shaft and spider gears fall off, and then you are stuck. To know for sure, you need somebody to crawl under and look to see if the driveshaft is rotating while you have it in gear, idling, and the emergency brake set. If this is the case, then it will be the rear end.
