Wow. Don't think I've ever seen that. What material is your frame. I wonder if you shifted just as you were applying torque and the frame was already weakened, somehow. I have seen the derailleur mount rip clean off the bike under a hard shift. Never seen a direct mount pull out of the frame, though.
