First, check the oil level.

Its more likely that a wire got knocked off that affects the
instruments. In some cars (not sure about Hondas), the logic used to
determine whetheror not the engine is running is derived from an oil
pressure signal. The shop may have knocked it loose.

However, the worst case would be if the oil level sensor was working but
they forgot to put oil in it.
