I have encountered this sort of thing before where the two belts are driven on the same shaft and the exterior aux belt derails from the drive pulley and comes off on the inner side of the pulley and gets drawn along the shaft to the interior timing belt. But firstly this only happens when the belt leaves the pulley unbroken and has nowhere to go. If the belt is severed it leaves the drive path and the chances of it being wound around the drive shaft are slight. And even if it stays in one piece and is derailed, it is a 50/50 chance which way it will come off. So I'd still say that losing a aux belt isn't great but it is nothing compared to losing the timing belt which will screw the engine however it fails.
