You must have lifted your foot -- the engine will race otherwise. If you were coasting, it might have dropped, but with the CC it should have raced the engine.
The speedometer dropping to zero might indicate that the drive gear failed, but it should keep reading if the driveline is turning as the car rolled, unless you sheared a flex disk or snapped a pinion gear. You need to examine the driveline for damage, and check to make sure the bolts that hold the torque convertor to the flywheel are intact (although they usually make a racket when they break off). Check the shifter bushings and link to make sure it didn't fall off (it happens) leaving the shift lever unconnected to the transmission. Otherwise, the most likely thing is a sheared pump drive. No pump, no pressure, no pressure no clutch engagement, it's in neutral and will stay there.
