Had a similar problem with stuck "In Progress" distributions. Opened a call with Microsoft and got no good answers as to why they were stuck and wouldn't finish. A large group of packages were stuck trying to distribute to 4 secondary sites, we found that redistributing to one of the four got the package to successfully finish on the other 3.
One interesting thing I found was that on a couple packages that were stuck they had been set to retired, which apparently if there is any in progress distributions once it gets set to retired, it will just stay that way perpetually.
