No, the belt didn't break, I was just replacing it because I had just bought the car. But when I was tightening the pulley bolt with the belt on, the belt slipped a few (not sure how many, could've been like ten or fifteen) teeth. I lined it back up based on the marks but my dad thinks that when I tightened up the bolt I could have bent the valves. I didn't think it was possible at that speed, but I can't really explain the compression or the not starting if the timing belt was put back on the original marks. Thanks for the reply.
