That's probably because some part of your station was getting power from
a circuit that had an MOV "surge protector" in it, and your station was
not properly bonded. Study N0AX's ARRL book on the topic, to which I
contributed, and/or this slide deck for talks I've done on it.

MOV "surge protectors" are a common CAUSE of destructive failures.
