A single wave on its own would not be able to overturn a cruise ship 180 degrees. At most, a wave would knock the ship on its side 90 degrees. When the RMS Queen Mary, which inspired the original book, was nearly capsized by a wave it tilted about 50 degrees. Even if additional waves hit the ship overturning it 180 degrees it wouldn't stay that way. Large vessels like cruise ships and battleships are designed so they won't stay upside down even if they got to that point, naturally returning to 90 degrees. The USS Oklahoma only stayed upside down after getting the mast stuck in Pearl Harbor's mud, while the SS Andrea Doria settled at 90 degrees until it sank.
