Bear in mind that pressurisation alone does not replicate all the loads on a windshield in flight; you're also forcing a lot of air out of the way of the aircraft. Quite possibly the effect in flight is a net positive pressure on the outside face of the windshield, since it's seeing something akin to the pressure at a pitot.
