I guess some figure the collapse would not be symmetrical, but 14 milliseconds seems really really short to me. I wouldn't be surprised if the cause was something completely unknown; 2 sub solar mass Black Holes coalescing maybe? That would be really exciting if true. Black Holes that small would pretty much have to be primordial, I can't think of anything except the Big Bang itself that would have conditions extreme enough to produce them.
