That is what I thought. Then why would it be going at 99% CPU for over 20

Would the fact that a website was still connected to DB cause the problem?
Normally, no - an index creation is an atomic operation. It waits
until it has a table lock, then does its thing, and then it is done.
It waits for connections, then while it is working other connections
wait for it.
I would guess that perhaps you have somehow encountered a deadlock.
