if tempered glass has some stress on it, as soon as there is a nick, it will shatter like yours did.

same thing happened to my tempered shower door...one night at 3AM, it sounded like a shotgun went off in my bathroom and there was a pile of shattered glass on the floor.

Tempered glass usually only shatters when it is hit on the corners.

Maybe there was some rubber on the sides that became loose and you didnt replace it, so the piece of glass also became loose and started to vibrate violently until it hit the corner with enough pressure to break the glass.
