No, that means that they are either stable for long distance interstellar travel, or they are created in the high-temperature high-pressure environment that is created when the rock is aerocaptured by and impacted into the planet.
I think it is no suprise that similar materials are found around nuclear detonation sites and extraterrestrial impact craters: the energy release is on a similar large scale and similarly instantanious.
