My guess would be that he had just learned something quite unpleasant about 
his parents, who he had previously had up on quite a high pedestal.  His 
illusions about his father were rather shattered, and it must have been 
sort of like losing his father a second time. That small display of 
motherly affection was probably just a bit much for him at that particular 
moment. Poor Harry.
