That's good news, most likely (as others have already said) one of the pistons got stuck, just keep an eye on it,

Maybe they just needed to bed in. (form to the shape of the discs) or, as the disc were hot when the pads were rubbing, the discs had expanded, now they've cooled down, shrunk and are no longer rubbing. Try a short ride around the block and see if it comes back. If it does, I'd run off and clean the pistons, if not...go practice your stoppies :D
