Lost throttle control and gauges

I lost all throttle response and all gauges in the dash after running over a rough field. The engine would run at an idle but could not accelerate. I found a blown fuse (I believe it was the gauge fuse and replaced it. The gauges started working and the throttle too. It is ok now. Why would losing the gauge fuse cause the throttle to not respond? Is the gauge fuse supplying the voltage for the throttle too?
I have a 2001 F250 with a 7.3 diesel.
