Possible that the pump overfilled the tank, but more likely you have a bad cutoff valve (top of tank), cracked fill tube, blocked vent tube, or cracked seal around the fuel pump assembly. Could also be more sinister, like a cracked fuel tank. Leaking fuel line is also another possibility.
Hard to say without pulling the tank down and having a look at it. There are a number of plastic fittings and valves at the top of the tank - any could contribute to a leaking tank, but given that gas ran out when the car will jacked up in the air - could be just about anything at the moment.
