The exhaust did smell a little like when you spill oil on a hot exhaust manifold.
I hope this didn’t put a huge hole in the O-zone layer.

I don't understand this. You put 2 gallons of motor oil into 1/2 tank of diesel. Did you fill the tank the rest of the way with diesel?
2 gallons into a half tank would be 20% oil or 5:1 ratio.
2 gallons into a full tank would be 10%
I have done it once or twice but put 1 gallon into a full tank, or 5% mixture. I don't think I would want to go higher.
