Interesting factoid about people being stronger than they appear. Back in high school, I was able to push a Ford Explorer in park by myself. I was under 5' and weighed about 100-110lbs. Not much visible muscle. Forgive me, but that is complete BS. The parking gear locks all drive tires on a 4x4, making it extremely difficult for anyone to push. It's the equivalent of pushing a 2 tonne box standing on 4 large rubber stands.

Pushing a car in neutral or drive, however, is very easy. Well, not necessarily easy, but possible. I have to agree, pushing a 4x4 in park is ridiculously difficult. A 100 pound high school girl on her own? No way in hell.
