I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT MILEAGE. CAR SMOKING UNDER DASH. CAR DOESN'T WANT TO START NOW. CHECKED BATTERY, STARTER ALTERNATER?

Sounds like something got fried. Test out the ignition switch.
Put a voltmeter on the battery and start vehicle up-the reading should be 13.5-15.5 volts if not the alternator is not putting out or the battery is not taking the charge.
