Sounds like the wrong type of glass.

It was a common fault on V8 Pilots. If the door was slammed with the window have half way down the glass would crack from top to bottom, but it wouldn't actually break.

I don't know for sure but I would have thought your Pop would have had laminated glass which would crack, or less likely toughened glass which would shatter into crystals. As Peter said wrong type of glass.
