There's a lot of different stories on that mishap. It used to be contributed to a neutral start and possibly even done in front of Chrysler factory reps. Different cars too, sometimes it's said to be one of the Ramchargers.

It has always looked like an over running clutch explosion to me. I think a lot of other guys have said the same thing.

It's about as popular as this pic. BTW, this car was restored a few years ago.
