Tom used a word in describing his set - that word was ancient.
That is what this set is/was - ancient.
Regardless of any elevated voltages or current I am convinnced that old age claimed this flyback - 56+ years, billions/trillions of electrons flowing through 38 awg wire - it was bound to happen.
Early television engineers never designed/dreamed of ANY set lasting for decades - even the ludicrously over-built Zenith sets of the late 60's and early 70's were/are disposable items.
Same goes for countless items...cars...wristwatches...refridgerators...NOT HING is designed to last ad infinitum.
