Josh McDowell said:

anakulio means to roll up

BLB, Mk 16:

4 And having looked up, they see that the stone has been rolled away; for it was extremely large.

when they looked up,
ἀναβλέψασαι (anablepsasai)
Verb - Aorist Participle Active - Nominative Feminine Plural
Strong's 308: To look up, recover my sight. From ana and blepo; to look up; by implication, to recover sight.

had been rolled away,
ἀποκεκύλισται (apokekylistai)
Verb - Perfect Indicative Middle or Passive - 3rd Person Singular
Strong's 617: To roll away. From apo and kulioo; to roll away.

The Greek lexeme was apokulio, not anakulio as McDowell claimed.

● Matt 12:40 . . For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge
fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

The important thing to note is that some women came out to the cemetery on the
morning of the third day and Jesus was gone (Luke 24:21-23) which means his
crucified dead body was restored to life during the third day rather than after it was
over and done with.

McDowell's Mistake-
You are correct in stating that McDowell mistakenly identified the verb as ἀνακυλίω (anakulio).

ἀνακυλίω (anakulio) would imply "to roll up" or "to roll back", which is not the verb used in this context.

The word ἀνακυλίω does not appear in the Greek New Testament.

The correct verb in Mark 16:4 is indeed ἀποκυλίω.
