As is typical in these discussions, you got the order of failure incorrect. The tire casing failed first, causing the tube to "escape" and ultimately fail as well. That rear tire looks pretty well worn...you probably had some worn casing threads in that spot.

The rim damage looks like you ran into something while trying to stop...
