Cool Propeller malfunction

During the process of relightof one of the engines in a twin engine aircraft, propeller spins up from feathered position (Blade angle ~80 deg) to 100% (prop rpm) as the prop control lever is moved to fine pitch position from feathered position. The engine is yet to be started and there is minimal oil pressure in the system. How did it happen?Any conjecture?
