I told the pitcher who had considerably accelerated his delivery (but did pitch from the windup position) that this was a Quick Pitch

You were wrong. There's nothing against speeding up (or slowing down) the delivery.
And, a Quick Pitch is specifically defined as (something like) "Pitching before the batter is ready" -- it has nothing to do with the runner or with the pitcher's specific motion.
