If that was a 5 gallon batch, the Mr. Malty pitching rate calculator says that you should have used 2.2 vials of yeast, or a starter of at least 1 liter. And that's if the yeast was packaged by the manufacturer YESTERDAY. I would definitely recommend a starter next time.

Don't worry, it'll make beer. Not as good as a one mil per ml pitch but it will be more than quaffable if I had to venture a guess. Tue it will have more than enough cells generated so don't repitch then. Keep an eye on temps and slowly raise to the high end when it starts to slow to get the attenuation offset that may suffer from a lower pitch though.
