Were you using flash or the autofocus-assist lamp? Both have a failsafe that disables the shutter if they get too hot. Or maybe the shutter got too hot...? :D
 
Then it almost definitely was the on-camera flash overheating. It depends on the flash power setting, but you can usually take 5-20 photos before the failsafe kicks in.
 
Its just a safety precaution.

Your camera is fine.
 
Yep, as long as the flash is in a fit state to cool down (i.e. it's not in an oven), then it will go away quickly.
 
I think TamiyaGuy has it.

But there's another possibility ... were you shooting in RAW?

If so, there is a limit to how many shots you can get before the camera has to pause to buffer.
 
exactly what i was gonna say, if you were shooting continously.....
