Never heard of it happening on a properly put together assembly.

Can you post good (in focus close up) pics of the broken shaft and the pump internals?

I had oil pump shaft damage too when a small piece of a clutch fiber plate got stuck in the oil pump. The shaft didn“t break it got bent and damaged the lower case and the clutch basket. Did you have engine damage before the rebuild? Perhaps some "shrapnel" was left in the oil cooler? I replaced my oil cooler when i rebuilt my engine.
