However, sometimes they’re too big to burn up enough and they can hit, chances are however that this particular meteorite wasn’t that big, maybe 3 or 4 feet when it entered the atmosphere, right before impact it would have been about a foot across. Big enough to make a big boom but not big anough to cause collateral damage.
It’s also possible that it exploded before impact, that would make more sense by the way PS3 Fan described it.

By Associated Press
2:38 AM PDT, September 12, 2006
WELLINGTON, New Zealand — Hundreds of people called emergency services to report a sonic boom Tuesday that scientists said was probably caused by a small meteor.
Residents in the southern city of Christchurch told police and fire services that the boom shook the ground and their houses.
Witnesses said they saw a streak of light in the sky above the sparsely populated region.
Sonic booms are created when an object moves through the air faster than the speed of sound, about 700 mph.
“I saw the end of it, it was quite big and bright and it was just shooting across the sky, then the light went out," Matthew Miller, who was working about 50 miles south of Christchurch, told National Radio."
Heh, I didn’t think he was lying
