I bet you're right!I've seen where thieves try to pry on the edges of "frameless" auto glass and the results look like what you have there.
Does this really work?
Yes and yes. Automobile side windows are no impediment to an experienced dobad.

Training films I watched in the late 70s showed cons who volunteered to demonstrate their skills with a small chunk of spark plug ceramic and a spring loaded center punch. Very quick and effective, even spectacular.
Parked close to the street? Could have been a rock kicked up. Or wayward yutes with a birthday BB gun. Small chance it was a homicidal stalker.
Oh yeah it does.Does this really work?
Not at all. It could be carried.Are you suggesting that garden gnomes migrate...?

It's amazing just how much stress a window of tempered glass will endure before it shatters. It's pretty flexible. On the other hand, my old Ford station wagon has a rolling tailgate glass that I've replaced three (3) times in about 30 years. One time from unknown causes, but twice it was just spontaneous breakage. I can only guess from a build-up of stress. Years ago, I junked out four other similar vehicles; I've only got one tailgate glass left now.I've seen where thieves try to pry on the edges of "frameless" auto glass and the results look like what you have there.
