That is no longer the case (and it never was). And I would hope you didn't have any issues, especially when you are changing the oil that often. Every 3k is one of those myths pushed by the Oil companies that many of us took as fact. Not too mention the advances in technology between 50 years ago and now.
Recommended oil change interval is 7,500 miles.
