When this happens to me, I get out of the car, and using the keyfob, lock the car, unlock it, get back in, close the door, wait a moment, and then turn the key. It's happened a few times... It's just VATS having a brain fart I think.

Check the contacts on your key. Sometimes the contacts will get worn down and not make a good connection inside the ignition in order to tell the car your key is "okay". Try your spare key if you have one, if not then try cleaning the contacts on your key and jiggling it in the ignition.
