The only way to blow up a battery directly by charging it is to MASSIVELY overcharge the battery. Unless your charging system went haywire (always possible) it is very unlikely that you could have pumped enough charge into that battery in a short drive to overcharge it to the point of explosion.
My vote is "battery in unvented location, no vent, H2 buildup, BOOM!"

Not sure whether its sealed or non-sealed.
