Really?...I thought they pushed a cyanoacrylate glue into the crack...hide
the crack and adhere it together......

It doesn't matter what they push into the crack. The structural integrity of that windshield has been breached and a bit of plastic glue cannot restore it. Even if the material ended up being as hard as the glass around it. It's just cosmetics, nothing better.
