Why do seeds grow quickly after being frozen?

Not all seeds do, but many seeds from regions with cold winters require freezing in order to break their dormancy. This helps the seeds to germinate at the appropriate time. If seeds that fell in fall germinated immediately, they would face freezing winter temperatures which could damage or kill them. Seeds that germinate after freezing are more likely to grow in spring with lots of warm weather ahead of them.

I didn't realize that the seeds I was planting had to be pointy-tip up and only about 5mm in the dirt. I put them in and put water so they might be in rather deep will my seeds germinate at all?

it depends. which seeds and how deep? It has been my experience that if your seeds s were planted correctly, no matter the direction seeds are pointing, if nature intended for that seed to germinate, it will germinate & grow. It will only take longer & will have a more pronounced curvature than a formal upright growth. And even this will be at most extreme trunk area, which would not be noticed.

Why is the seed cover important to the baby plant?

Do you mean why is it important to cover seeds? If so, not all seeds must be covered - some MUST have light to germinate. Ones that are covered are covered for 3 main reasons, one or more of which may apply - to hide them from seed predators, such as birds, they require dark to germinate and to stop any developing root pushing the seed up, off the compost, rather than the root penetrating into the compost.
