The other name for it is "liquid glass."
 
I guess the stuff poured in a running engine ruins the bearings and pistons. Seizes the engine.
 
Ironically, some people have used the stuff as a block sealer to fix head gasket problems and cracked engine blocks, at least for a few months.

Silica is a form of glass and very abrasive. Think of it as smashing a bottle into bits and stuffing it in the engine... while running.
