I have a modern Maytag gas range with 4 burners and oven. Propane fuel. I was cooking some pasta on a back burner and turned that knob to off and a "wosh of flame" came from the top front. It pushed open the bottom drawer a few inches. This and most modern gas ranges turn on all burner igniters when you turn on the burner and turn off a burner. Both functions go past the "igniter" range of turning the knob.
Propane is heavier than air so it will sink (natural gas is lighter).
I am not sure if the stove is defective or what? And do I call propane company or Maytag service?
Obviously there was some propane gas around the front burner and when all the igniters came on it did the "wosh".
I did try the stove after for a few minutes and it worked fine.
I turned off the gas at the tank for now.
I ordered a sensitive combustible gas detector tool.
