Did you try to telnet to the machine?
In the past I experienced a lot of X crashes where I couldn't get
to the console, but a telnet from another machine always worked
(so *X* crashed, not FreeBSD). Kill X and restart X. In some cases 
however the consoles disappeared which could only be reset by 
rebooting (a *soft* reboot). 
Of course, if your machine isn't connected to another one, it
is effectively a crash :-(.

Karel.
