Smoke, heat, smell on reversing up steep driveway

Yesterday, I was driving up a very steep hill in reverse and my '00 9-5 wagon suddenly began to smoke (white smoke coming from the front of the car -- not sure where, either the wheels or under the car it seemed, not from hood), smell like burning rubber, and I felt heat under my seat. It was a short driveway. The parking brake definitely was disengaged. The wheels were not spinning.
After I reached the top, the car was fine, although the smell lingered for awhile. It was frightening and strange. No problems with the car today.
Any ideas? I am taking the car to the dealer in a couple days.
