it 'dieselled'
diesels don't have spark plugs - the pressure in the cylinder is sufficient to cause ignition.
if under stress, like say a high state of tune, or due to wear, (for example the piston rings wearing) the engine oil in the sump, finds it's way into the pistons and being remarkably similar to diesel oil... it runs on it's own oil, which isn't regulated like the diesel fuel... so it runs away with itself
or 'diesels'

At first I thought that it was the dyno blowing the smoke, but now I’m not so sure.

Looks like oil burning rather than diesel.
Explains why it increased over time.
I've only seen petrol engines dieselling, for different reasons.

It's really fun when it happens to a stationary diesel with a broken turbo
Your only hope is to either stuff something in the air intake and run away, or to apply whatever brakes they are... and run away.
