A queen for two rooks is not too crazy, whether it's worth it depends a lot on the position. The naive piece worth suggests that two rooks (5 each) is worth more than a single queen (9), but in practice it's more complicated. I would say though, as someone who's not amazing at chess that was definitely one of the most significant moments in the game for me - Not that Magnus was making a mistake, but that he was creating a very big imbalance in the pieces which was going to make the game get a lot more interesting.
