Did you just pull the cable loose from the transmission?  The cable should
be square on the end, and it fits into a piece that should have a gear on
the end.  If you pulled out more than the cable it sounds like the gear is
broken or missing.

I inquired previously about how to fix my speedometer, here are the results:
the cable is fine, the gauge is fine, BUT when i removed the speedometer
connection from the transmission and pulled it out...I noticed there was no
gear on the end of it, and really i'm clueless as to how this thing
works...(i know.. clueless about how anything on the truck works)....but
first explain to me how it works, i know how the cable goes in, but it will
not spin...and if it did spin, how did it move the gear that was supposed to
be on the end of this thing?  Nothing on what i removed moves.... and if it
is broken, can i just buy a new one?
