blown tire - this shouldn't happen!

First time trying the image thing, so hopefully I did that right.
Cruising down the highway yesterday in my '98 Volvo V70 ('03 Aero wagon crashed into last week) and the tire just exploded off. The entire outside tread. Thank the gods that no one was immediately near me. I was able to pull over.
I realize that the tires were getting old, probably 4 years and it had been on my list to get a new set, but come on, this shouldn't happen.
Just looking for opinions on if this is a massive tire failure and what to do about it.
Thanks,
Wes L
