Um, i gotta tell you, even with hearing protectors, a human being could probably not survive hearing 180 decibels. seriously doubt this information. It obviously had to be done in the presence of people and even with hearing protectors that goes well beyond the human tolerance for noise.
The threshold of pain for most humans, even with bad hearing, is 130 decibels. After that, the noise is intolerable. Also, the hearing loss is immediate and permanent. 150dB causes permanent, irreversible damage to the ear, and 180 decibels is 1000 times the power.
It couldn't be done with humans around without making them all deaf. So i seriously doubt it.
163 dB is the point at which glass breaks. Eardrums rupture at 190 db. 200 dB can cause death to humans and is generated at the exploding point of a bomb.
If this was done, it wasn't ever tested or competed in the presence of actual humans, so what the he!! was the point??

How little you know about SPL competitions .. This is done in the prescence of others, the microphone is set inside the vehicle. Vehicles that are set up for this type of competition do not have glass, they have bullet proof pleaxi as a windshield, often in multiple pieces because it does not bend, the rest of the car is insulated with concrete, likely, to sound proof, and the radio is burped remotely or from and outside mounted source. These cars are never driven and built for just 1 purpose, a 2 second burp.
So it is possible, and it was done, however it was done back in October, it is the current standing worlds record.
