Keep in mind that Bismarck also knocked out Prince of Wales and might have been able to sink it had Bismarck not broken contact.

Of course, luck definitely played a part. Prinz Eugen had taken the lead in the formation, and so the Brits fired upon it instead, then had to start finding the range all over again when they realized their error. Meanwhile, Bismarck had found Hood and was hitting her repeatedly.
