Anything is possible and all speculation at this point, but if the HG failed, leaking enough water to cause it to overheat, this could result in the major coolant and oil loss. Unlikely but a possibility. Oil would have to come from internal pressure (coolant pressure into block) to blow oil out.
Another possibility is the shop did not properly secure a hose or other fitting, but then they could of corrected that when you brought it in so they would not have to eat an engine. Sad to think this.
Guessing the HG failed either before, causing the overheat, or after as a result of the the overheat resulting in the oil blowing out. But now would be hard to say if it was cause or result.
