Very likely its because of wear in the shift linkage. You may be able to adjust the linkage to compensate for the wear. If not, you have a more serious transmission problem.

Why would the transmission start in third gear in 1994 ls 400?

Guessing that the power to the transmission module is lost. Some manufacturers make available a "limp home" mode that reverts to third gear take off if the electronics are lost. In other words, if you unplug the computer harness from the transmission, the transmission will remain in 3rd gear so you can drive it to a repair shop.
