My wife backed her 4kq out of its parking space today and when she went to
drive forward, the car would shift into gear, at least by the feel, but
when she let the clutch out, there's just a whirring noise and no movement.

Broken CV joint?

Lock the center diff only and try to drive the car.  If the car goes, you have a broken front CV joint, prolly an outer one.  You can confirm by trying to shake each of the front drive axles.  The one that moves has the broken CV joint.
