Oh god! Sounds like an unfortunate incident, that could have been a non issue had you not slammed on that rear brake.
Get out and practice some emergency braking...like when you are out on a ride, randomly shut her down, do this at least once on every ride so that the braking maneuver becomes second nature.
Slamming that rear brake is a reflex that dirt bike riders like me have to work on changing. I've done a lot of practicing for that panic situation, but I'm afraid that when the time comes I'd do the same thing you did!
