Probably the rapid temperature change from -20/25 to 70 caused the CO2 in the soda to come out of solution and expand quickly enough to explode. Gases expand in volume as the temperature goes up. If you had warmed them slowly, maybe sticking them in the freezer for a while, then move them to the fridge, then to room temperature it probably would've been alright.
