Having established that the film was loaded correctly, then another problem that is worth looking at is a slipped winding pawl in the mechanism that does not engage with the ratchet spindle. With the older Pentax 6x7 cameras (coming out of 1969), faults with the winding mechanism are well documented and unfortunately quite common, related to repeated heavy professional use (studio, chiefly) that weakens the components and can lead to either freewheeling of the wind-on lever or failure to engage at some point, much like what you are experiencing now.
If you purchased the camera online, do you have recourse to being able to return the camera on the assumption that it is likely to have been faulty when you received it? Same again for a brick-and-mortar store. Repair of the winding mechanism is not user-serviceable unless you are handy with miniscule screws and springs that pop out the moment the caps are taken off! These big old cameras can be repaired at
pentaxs.com; email Eric there for an assessment before the expense of sending the camera to him (assuming you are in the US; outside of the US he may not recommend the camera being sent over, but it's worth asking).
