Possibly the mechanical lock sticking causing the switch to stay on or a faulty switch as there plastic and not very good ,but more likley just the mechanical lock requires lubricated.

If you can move your ignition key back ever so slightly when the fault happens it should stop the starter running and prove that the fault lies with the ignition.
