Typically, artillery barrage will only disable a tank by knocking off a track, or mangling the weapons and gun sights.

I would guess that the external fuel tanks on those SU-100s might have been full, to do so much damage.

Also, I see no road wheels or tracks in that pic. That might indicate these tanks have been scavanged from spare parts making them look more buggered then they really were.
