The truck would just sit still. The shear pin is on the other end of a worm drive. The worm drive will not allow the winch to turn without input from the PTO shaft, either forward or reverse. It would be a rather bummer, especially if it was a steep hill and the cable was tight. Fortunately you will be quite safe unless the cable breaks or the winch case splits open.
