Saturn Question

Today after I turned a corner, I tried to accelerate only to find that my car wouldn't go faster, yet the rpm needle was at 4. I seemed to be idling and thank goodness was right near the pull-in of a strip center, or I could have caused a wreck. What could be wrong?
The car is a 2001 Saturn sedan.
