You'll be able to get that undone again. Don't worry about it. Threadlock is purely that: locks it, stops it working loose. But it doesn't bond it permanently.
Let's say you bang that cog up to 100Nm. To unwind it at the pedal end with 48x16 gearing like you young whippersnappers use you'll have to push and pull 900N (90kg) through each pedal or a straight stomp of 180kg through one leg if you were to just stand on one pedal. Got legs?
