Remember that smoke? that was the insulation burning away in your starter motor and starter solenoid - if you're really lucky, some melting wiring was assisting in the burning of the insulation.
without insulation - in the starter solenoid or starter motor - your starter is toast.
cause? solenoid was probaly begining to fail and arc across the contact points - that either welded the points shut or some other kind of failure resulted in the points closing.
