Never saw anything like that, but maybe your timing was perfect.

When you boil eggs the albumen becomes solid and the yolk, hard or soft
separates. I wonder if you tilted the pan when it just reached the
right temperature for them to part.

While it was a turnoff for you, it would have been the perfect egg for
me. I'd save the yolk for the last bite with a bite of buttery toast.
Yummmmm.
