While there is no single event that triggered the cold war to take place there was a world climate that incubated it with alarming speed.
The largest factor was that Russia and the US were both the two largest nations at that time with two very different set of allies.
The US was supporting Mao's movement in China to become the center of communism in the world while at the same time attacking Sovietism via McCarthyism out of paranoia of a Soviet attack.
At the same time Russia was supporting Communist growth in Latin America and Africa which the US deemed to their control over international relations in the Western Hemisphere.
Throw in the US refusing to share nuclear tech with Russia and Russia refusing to aid the US in assisting the development of third world nations, top it off with the US openly purchasing Russian government agencies and relocating them to the US and you have one really big political disaster.
Your question should have been "What cause the Cold War to never develop into a real war?" That would have been more specific: mutually assured destruction.
