I think it would be safe to assume that the drive portion of the starter has gone away as the starter will not run without the solenoid etc functioning properly. It is also possible that a tooth or two has been broken off the flywheeel but this is so rare on Saabs as to be almost not worth mentioning.
One thing to look at is why it did this?? the key can stick on and cause the starter to stay on. When this happens the drive can grenade itself or at worst it will destroy the starter. Check out the key well and if it sticks lube it up. and if you are in the habit of pitting cans of soda or cups of coffee near the key get a cupholder.
