Hi,
Now a days, various parts of cars are more of electric powered. The alternator, that produces electricity for the parts in the car and charges the battery for starting,
When the belt broke loose from the alternator, it stop producing electric current for the the system, thus it drained your battery and stop the car from running.
The problem is the alternator bracket that have loosen and dislodge the belt, it happened when somebody did not tighten the bolts and nuts on the bracket.

Hope that helps you out.
Thanks for asking FixYa!

Toyota 2000 Sienna LE. Problem - Engine won't stop even turned the key off and pulled it out. A high frequency noise under hood and last about 20 seconds and the engine turn it self off. Only happened...

I had a similar problem with a Previa. It occurred when starting the engine. Turns out the starter would not disengage from the fly wheel. I believe that the starter was the source of the high frequency noise. Had to disconnect the battery cable to stop the starter. Replaced the starter and everything was fine.
Good luck.

1992 toyota camry v6 le boggs down on acceleration

It sounds like you may have a vacuum leak. Your car should normally idle at about 700-750 RPM. You said that yours was at about 1000-1500, that is waaay to high. If you have a leak somewhere in the system the car will draw in extra air and it will want to idle much higher and will also be very erratic and hard to drive.
