S21 ultra, sos icon when powering off by holding power button.

Welcome to Android Central! SOS is triggered by pressing the Side Key 3-4 times in a row, so I suspect the phone thinks that's what you're doing, instead of trying to hold it down. This might be due to not pressing the button firmly enough, or possibly due to some problem with the button itself.
