Factual error: There's a scene where the mother shoots an oxygen tank, which explodes, to kill an alien. A bullet shot by a pistol doesn't have the power to penetrate an oxygen cylinder. This has been tested with guns of various types. Even a .44 Magnum was only able to dent the cylinder. It took a .338 Lapua Magnum rifle cartridge to penetrate the cylinder. Even then, the cylinder didn't explode; it just "shot flame" from the exit hole.

Answer: They may have just been lucky driving it back without being detected, unaware the aliens primarily used sound to navigate. At that point, there may have been fewer aliens in the first wave of the attack.
