The glass used building vehicles to US specifications must be (by law) tempered. A process that hardens the glass. Should the glass be hit by some object, a person's head or another hard object with enough force the glass shatters into small pieces or chunks of small pieces that easily separate along the cracks in the chucks. This is so there are no shards or long pieces of broken glass that could cut or penetrate a person nearby or during an accident.

Glass is tempered by sudden but controlled cooling. The glass is formed; it's edges dressed or smoothed out rolled out of the furnace, cooled using usually 1 of three techniques.

The glass does not flex very much; it will flex to a point and then shatter just like it was hit with a hard object. I suspect your side glass in your Dodge was impacted on it's edge, flexed or stressed to a point to far from it's original shape.
