I'm no belt expert, but looking at that closeup of the belt, that doesn't look like old age to me. You can see that it is worn down to the steel cords in the belt. It looks like that was wearing away for quite some time. Was there a lot of rubber dust in the covers when you took them off? I can see dust even in the picture.
I can only speculate that the the belt was on too tight and wore right through to the cord. Then the teeth were able to easily shear off and that was that.

I think I have the beginnings of a plan for the car. I've sent you a PM.
