Sounds like something might be seized? Did the speedo work for a bit when you put in the new cable? A LITTLE bit of grease can help but that won't have caused it to break in that short a time. When you fit the new cable jack up the rear wheels and start the car, put it in gear and have a look/listen. Make sure you are on flat ground with axle stands too!
