This line (above) combined with ...

this line suggests that when you shut down, md had already started a
resync, and it had checkpointed at block '3'.
The subsequent error are:
> Oct 18 03:52:56 kernel: [ 52.869692] md/raid1:md2: sda: unrecoverable I/O read error for block 131
> Oct 18 03:52:56 kernel: [ 52.869837] md/raid1:md2: sda: unrecoverable I/O read error for block 259
> Oct 18 03:52:56 kernel: [ 52.870022] md/raid1:md2: sda: unrecoverable I/O read error for block 387
which are every 128 blocks (aka sectors) from '3'.
I know what caused that. The patch below will stop it happening again.
You might be able get your array working again by stopping it
and assembling with --update=resync.
That will reset the checkpoint to 0.
