The fact you had a conscious thought of a dream within a dream definitely sounds like a step in the right direction. An element of awareness just might have come into play. One thing about lucid dreams is that awareness varies dramatically. We all talk about being conscious and aware within the dreams, but that doesn't always mean the entirety of your awareness. Many times when I've had lucid dreams, I knew I was dreaming, and yet I would still disregard some absurd things as normal. For example, you might know it's a dream, and yet you could see a flying car and shrug it off as normal, whereas realistically it's not. For this reason, I find it can be good to create a plan of action for your lucid dreams, an outline of things you wish to do. That way, even if you don't have complete awareness, you're likely to at least consciously recall and pursue your plan.
Anyway! Yes, it sounds like you had a very, very small dose of awareness creep in there. Good stuff.
