Is this a possibility?
Find answers to your legal question.

i was driving under a bridge with train tracks & there was a train running on it. as soon as i was coming out from under the bridge my front window of the car kinda just popped & a huge part of the window cracked. we thought that something had fell off the bridge and hit it but we didnt see anything hit it. so ive heard theories & my question is, could the window have cracked due to the pressure from being under the bridge in the first place?

No. Not even remotely.

They've done tests of people standing right next to a train as it goes by, and while there is pressure, there's not enough to damage anything, or even really move the people.

So, being 20-30 feet away.....there is zero chance it would do that to your window. Something else happened, and it was just coincidence.

No way.
Coincidence, or maybe something fell from above that you did not see. Or maybe you ran over a huge bump or mogul that caused your frame to twist and the window to bend and crack.

wow that is really strange!!

Anything is "possible", however this is highly unlikely.
Something probably did hit your window, and bounced off.
