I think it crashed because when you multiply a half-million people in a room by an account with over 100 million followers, which is Elon’s account, I think that creates just a scalability level that was unprecedented, David Sacks, Tech entrepreneur, via CNN.

CNN reports that Twitter's Spaces was not intended to host events with hundreds of thousands of listeners.

.

Sacks also attempted to spin the crash in a positive direction following the hour long event, saying, , “It’s not how you started, it’s how you finish and we finished strong.”
