Yes, there was a smothered mate in 5 starting with Qd4+.

If you play Puzzle Rush a lot, you will learn to spot those.

I forgot that the White queen can interpose.

 

For the OP, this is a pattern worth remembering - and you will definitely launch one of it some day.

Missed mates may depend on the help of the player.  There was an open square which, if left open, would have achieved mate.

No, this doesn't require the opponent's help at this point. There is a forced mate in six.
