Lucky but also very careful.

Free hand sawing on a table saw is just asking to loose fingers/hands no matter the material. You just got lucky and I do not recommend repeating the stunt.
I think a guard and miter square would be helpful here. But I still wouldn't use my table saw on metal that thick.
With the correct blade it would be just fine. However the disregard for safety is way beyond the pale.
I've cut a lot of aluminum with a table and a compound miter saw. Each time I've also set up a poly sprayer to spray water on the cut to keep from being burnt from the chips.
