Nothing is wrong.  Park and leave the transmission in reverse (reverse
is a very low and square cut gear, so this provides the least amount of
leverage to turn over engine), and be sure to cramp the wheels  either
toward the curb or in what ever direction will guide the van towards the
closest obstacle in case it does slip.  You should really carry and use
a wheel chock until you get your cables fixed.
