If the timing is off and the engine backfires or kicks back it can do that.
I just went through 2 and 3 with the Cadillac 500 I put in my 71 GMC and ended up with similar results and had to buy a new starter endframe.

I replaced three starters in two weeks right after I built a high comp 455 Buick in my younger days. A little spark a few degrees too early can blow the nose clean off the starter.
