did you remove the other 4 lugs before that one? cause thats probably contributed to the issue...put the rest of the lug nuts BACK on and snug them up to help even out the wheel and pressure on that spot...lube it up with wd40, pb blaster and get a set of channel locks and try and pull it out...

BTW why are you using soooo much pressure you break a key?
seriously a wheel lug nut only needs like 75 pounds of pressure or sumthing? breaking a key which circular metal requires hundreds?
