An easier way to explain it is that instead of having the explosives exploding in every direction, the shaped charge cencentrates the force of the explosive in one direction and in a specific area.

Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

In other words, like using a projector lens instead of an uncovered ricer HID kit.

I think most armoured civilian cars are designed to take handgun/machine gun/rifle fire, and in higher rated versions, grenades and light explosives.

But a 50 cal I bet would swiss cheese them. Big explosives like C4 and Iraq/Afghan style IED's (which are often tank rounds or multiples of tank rounds) would make mincemeat of them as well.
