help changed my oil car will not start now

i change my oil removed the panel in the fender well and drained the oil and changed the filter.. i then put in 5w 30 valvoline dura blend
4 1/2 qts tried to crank and i just got the noise like at the intial startup the very first noise but this,just did that like it was not turning over just the noise. there was also a smell in the engine area like a electrical type of smell maybe? any suggestions or ideas on what this could be.... any and all would be helpful.
