Keep in mind there were MANY false alarms prior to the actual attacks. People have become complacent, so it's quite likely they would not have moved with the speed required, or even moved at all. Many may well have written it off as just another time wasting false alarm and nukes would never be used on US soil....
Yeah, people really can be stupid.
