I don't remember how close you have to be to perfectly straight. Five degrees may be enough to throw the computer off. The FSM should have that spec.

If the steering wheel has moved at all, that indicates to me that there is a very real possibility of serious damage. I recommend taking the car to a collision repair shop and get them to check for damage. This is way too serious to be diagnosing over the Intertubes - especially by me.
