Does it mean anything that the contact burned out rather than the bulb? Or is this just a thing that happens sometimes?

Common for GM DRLs if that’s what that is.

But the filament is always the weakest part of the circuit, isn’t it? Shouldn’t the bulb have blown instead of the connector?

If the bulbs were replaced with higher wattage units, that is the most likely cause and result. Make sure the bulbs you’re using are the correct ones for your particular application.
Also, oxidized contacts cause increased resistance at the connection, which can result in increased heat. Clean up the contacts in the socket and apply some dialectic grease before replacing the bulb.
