Rolling down the hill and dumping the clutch results in much higher RPM, overcoming the lack of compression from worn rings, or flooded conditions.
That is why running a 6 volt starter on 12 volts is such a popular option. The 6 starter will turn the engine over much faster on 12 volts than it does on 6 volts, thus increasing RPM and overcoming lack of compression from worn rings, or a flooded condition.
