So I now know what happens to a tubeless tyre when you get a major puncture.
It sprays gunk everywhere, and if you slow down it then fills the hole, and you can carry on riding it.
Managed to go 10km on a gunk filled hole, and I'm surprised the gunk worked at all. The hole is about 1cm long and 1-2mm wide and it's very visible.
At least I got home. Just need to get new tyres now I guess.
Tyre worm and rubberised superglue

Blimey.
Did you work out what caused it? A large piece of glass or a long screw perhaps?
