Keep a close eye on it or have it checked out, the PS Pump often fails intermittently at first but could eventually fail again catching you out in the next few days.
They have also been known to overheat and catch fire taking out the wiring loom and steering rack so if the pump continues to run after switching off the ignition key at any time.............disconnect the battery leads asap and have the car recovered to a garage.
