There's a theory beginning to go around that that was-

1) The three Diamond's fusing

2) The Diamond's retalliation to "end" the war, possibly some kind of nuke on Gems, which would account for Peridot's claim "the records say that all Gems were wiped out on Earth",  or even the origins of the Gem Monsters.

The second sounds alot more likely imo. Greg did allude to something happening resulting in Rose only being able to save her closest friends with her shield.
