My 2 cents on this puzzle. If the breaker was OFF and the GFI receptacle had power but tripped the test/trip buttons on the receptacle, then the breaker must be defective.
If the breaker was OFF and you couldn't rest the test/trip buttons on the GFI receptacle, maybe you needed power in order to reset the buttons on the receptacle.

It must be interesting or it wouldn't be posted here. I'll guess hot and neutral reversed.

It was tripping from current through the neutral and a neutral-ground fault.
