What exactly does

kernel dumps on /dev/mirror/gm0s1b

mean? Not that it saves any kernel dumps at least.. But otoh I have
no clue why it crashed at all and if it even did try to dump kernel

It means that the system died and released the sphincter when it did.
If you have dumpdev='AUTO'
dumpdir='/var/crash'
in your rc.conf, then you can find the crash dump in ${dumpdir}, then
you can use kgdb to retrieve the backtrace from the dump.
