The Taliban retreated to the mountains between Pakistan and Afghanistan and that has always been a rather lawless area, which is not controlled by the Pakistan government.
I would be surprised if the Taliban took control in the whole of Pakistan since I don't think most Pakistani would be willing to establish a strict fundamentalist state; but, having said that, it's always possible in a Muslim country. They all worry about it to some extent.

Both Iran and China have provided assistance to Pakistan in their development of a nuclear capability. It has been a great concern to the US for years now.

No question if the Taliban played a greater role in Pakistan, it would put the US in a very difficult position. It would also pose a difficult situation for India. Given the hatred and distrust between the Muslims and the Hindus, it would be only get more tense.
