Was the engine cold when you started it? It could have been a combination of the oil being cold (less viscous) and being on the slope. Check the oil level and also check for any leaks under the car. Hopefully it is nothing.

I can't remember if the Oil pump is Mechanical or Electrical but I imagine the pressure sensor is along the lines after this.
