Saw this on the CJ2A Page. What would cause a crank to fail like this?

WW2Chevy said:Of particular concern are what appear to be circular gouges in the un-machined face of the crank. This is obviously not intended to be a wear surface, and yet appears to have been subjected to some pretty harsh wear. Did something allow or cause a lateral force on the crank, rather than the circular motion it is designed for??
