Seveneves is a novel that uses a similar black hole event as part of the story's setup.

I thought they never explained why the moon broke up.

Micro black hole was explicitly mentioned as a possible cause, though you're right: the author also said the cause didn't matter.

The crevasse in the core was associated with the path of whatever object caused the damage.
