It's an easy mistake to be made and I suspect that it was most likely the wrong belt now that I thought about it more. If it was installed improperly it probably would have failed pretty quickly. Glad you got it sorted out either way.

When I replaced my belt last month I was just shy of 134,000 miles on the rig. The belt looks almost new with no cracks on it. So it probably didn't need to be replaced but I'm glad I got a trail spare now.

Sounds like you have the failed belt in hand . How is it damaged? Is it shredded, cut, worn through? Or did it just pop off a pulley? I have a friend who had a pulley seize up a mountain and he drove it down with the belt squealing all the way. He said it cooked itself pretty good but never failed.
You can get the OEM Bando on amazon for $12. 7PK2150

I would bet the tensioner spring is weak and it got enough slack to derail.
