The sudden stop is a differential backwards acceleration. The front of the object gets hits and starts accelerating backwards while the back is not,
If you could stop something by applying a uniform 10000g to all parts of the object, it would survive none the worse for wear. If you can't, and only apply it to part, the object gets smushed or ripped apart.
