vibrations, sound is a wave in the air. if it's high enough/ vibrates fast enough it will break the glass. This is due to the structure of the glass molecules but i can't elaborate on that.

If you take a finger and tap the glass to make it chime, and then sing that exact note at a high enough volume the frequencies will match. This causes vibrations to set up and break the glass. The only time I can find that it has happened with an unamplified voice was shown on Mythbusters.

the high pitched noise made by the vocal cords exert a powerful screech which makes the glass shatter.

it's not about how long they hold the note...it's about the frequency and intensity of the note they're singing.
