Stripped lock ring/hub

So I stripped the hub on the lock ring threads today on my rear Aerospoke...anyone ever heard of this? It's a new wheel and I don't know if they'll cover it (I just emailed them tonight) but I've never even heard of this. I'm pretty sure it was installed correctly, not really a lot of ways to do it wrong. It was nice and tight and I don't think I'm capable of over tightening it. It was a nice Dura Ace lock ring as well if that matters. I'm just wondering if you can over tighten and if this is a fairly common occurrence or a freak thing.
