Help - Stuck in recovery screen

I have a Razr Maxx HD with 4.1.2, never rooted.

I downloaded the new firmware release earlier today, successfully, but did not install it at that time. Later, I went into the recovery menu (power/volume up) and mistakenly fat-fingered the option to apply an update from ADB instead of the clear cache option I wanted. It went to a screen with this message:

qe 0/0
Now send the package you want to apply to the device with "adb sideload <filename>"...

It does not do anything and do not know how to get out of this. When I do volume down/volume up, it just toggles back and forth between the above message screen and the lying down android with red triangle with an exclamation mark screen.

How do I get out of this and get the phone back? Will it time out? Thanks!
