The belt is not holding the plane back, the wheels are free to spin. the body of the plane will be moved forward due to the thrust generated by the turbines. the wheels will just speed up, thats all. the thrust is completely independent from the belt's input on the wheels. the belt could be going twice the speed in the opposidte direction and the plane would still take off.
