Well certainly I would check the fluid level first there is no such thing as a little low on the 60e and a little low can kill the trans really quickly.
Generally with the 60E IMO your either full or your about to screw yourself real quick.

Low on fluid 1 mile is more than enough to do serious damage I am afraid. You should see what pressure readings on the dyno look like with the trans only about 1/2 quart low they are all over the place. Sorry this has happened to you.
