I've never owned a Dodge pickup with a Cummins motor or a PSD Ford, but I've owners F-250 HD's with the 6.9, and 7.3 diesel motors, and the oil in both would turn black within a day or two after an oil and oil filter change. What you're seeing sounds completely normal to me.
I did all my pm's myself, and I was pretty OCD about draining out the old oil; maybe a drop coming out a few times over a minute's time, before putting the drain plug back in, and adding the new oil.
I used mostly Delo 400 in both motors; I used Phillips Super HD-II, as well for about the last year I owned my 7.3, and the Phillips HDEO reacted exactly the same as the Delo; it turned black just as fast.
I'm a Truck Driver, and I've noticed this about the three big name diesel motors in Class 8 Semi Trucks:
Cummins ISX Motors: After a pm service, the oil was as black within the first day of operating it.
Detroit DD15 and Series 60 motors: The new oil stayed translucent for a couple of days before turning black.
Caterpillar 3406 and C15 motors: The oil stayed translucent for several days before turning black.
I hope this helps, and if it looks like you have a new filter(or filters)on your Cummins, I believe your oil was indeed changed.
