How on earth did you do it.---( Unless you drove with the hand brake on.---)

A potential cause for replacement (am not saying that it happened in this case), would be the shoes sticking to the drum, and then delaminating when released. One of mine is missing about 10 mm at the end of one of my shoes due to this. I park on a level (and have an auto so I can use P quite safely) so when parked up at night, at home, I would leave the handbrake off. If you plan to leave the car parked up for any amount of time, for this reason I would suggest leaving the handbrake off and use wheel chocks instead to stop it moving.
