Default Vacuun pump failed?

Today noticed the vacuum gauge starting to inch upward. Climbed from 5.0
to almost 8.0 in 5 minutes. DG and AI acting normal the whole time.
Then....dropped to zero and the gyros obviously quit. I only have
experienced 1 vacuum pump failure before and it just dropped to zero
without climbing first. Does this sound like the pump went?
