I can only guess from here, but my guess is that you had a head gasket issue, perhaps related to a problem with a bolt too long, the gasket itself, or some flaw in the head or block that failed to seal.
Proper, 3-stage correct torquing in the proper sequence followed by proper re-torquing is essential.
