Free spin causes chain to switch gears on RD?

I've had this problem for a while where, after multiple revolutions, if I free spin the crank (bike stationary), the chain may switch gears on the rear derailleur. I've been thinking my RD hanger might be slightly bent, but that is my best guess. Is this the problem?
