I was actually more struck by the similarities between Locke and Ben.
Both men killed their father on the island. Both seem to be the only two people that Jacob (whoever or whatever he is) was willing to communicate with. After Ben saw that John had killed his father, and he realized that Locke could hear Jacob, Ben probably realized that Locke was meant to take over the camp just as Ben had once done.
I think Ben shot Locke because he was protecting himself.
But if Locke healed from paralysis while on the island, is it possible he'll heal from the gunshot wound? Will he heal and be the key that destroys Ben and his camp?
Who the hell knows, all I know is that episode blew my mind, and Lost is back in a big way.
