I'm guessing they knew it was venting methane. I do think it's interesting SpaceX stops their replay after the successful landing but before the explosion.
It also looked like it was listing a bit, maybe less than 5 degrees after landing. That could be an illusion I suppose.

There were flames quite a while during the landing. Not sure that's planned. Still a heck of an accomplishment to get this far this quick.

I think so. It looked like something was off as soon as it shutdown one of the engines. The video feed I usually watch runs a procedure timeline on the screen ticking off milestones. Today was the first time they checked off "Landing." Then they listed "Safe Vehicle. Then came back and inserted "Or Not." Then "rapid oxidation of unused propellant."

I laughed when the little garden hose started squirting. "Oh, yeah. That's gonna do it."

Scott Manley did a deep dive, looks like the tank ruptured before it exploded. So likely a heavier landing than desired. It bounced as it touched down... I'll be interested in updates from spacex on the cause though, if they decide to share.
