I suspect the tire was on the shoulder of the rim. You were likely fighting harder than you should have had to if the tire was positioned so that the point 180 degrees from where you were spooning was in the middle of the rim (i.e., off the bead).
I would also inflate the tire and see if it holds air. I suspect it will and afterward you will forget the "issue" until the next time to change the tire.
If it doesn't hold air you know the answer.
