Did I just burn the lawn

Hello might have just made a stupid mistake but question is how bad. I blatantly misread the label for Ace (Scotts) Fertilize (29-0-4) and used a setting of 6.5 on my broadcast spreader instead of the proper setting of 4. Should I be freaking and doing damage control or am I over reacting? I've read that Scotts 'can't burn your lawn' because of its slow release formula but I'm somewhat skeptical. So how bad did I mess up? Already doing a super deep watering to mitigate somewhat. Thanks in advance
