What you faced was due to how light the snow is. When the plow last plowed the parking lot it created that incredibly smooth hard pack of snow that makes the surface like glazed ice. It is so slippery that the anti-lock system thinks the car has come to a complete stop. This has also happened to me a couple times this week. The good news is this is somewhat rare for us up here. Studs would make all the difference, but the trade off is most of the time our roads are dry or just wet. So you would deal with the noise and the scary stud on dry road issues. I'm sticking with the M3's.
