Maybe the head ended up on the cover of Escape From New York.

The head looked too small. The head from the chin to the forehead is 17 feet.

Test audiences complained the head looked too small so they increased the size.

According to Wikipedia, JJ Abrams was actually inspired by that image and decided to include it in his movie.

I thought the head of the Statue of Liberty suddenly rolling down the street like a bowling ball was AWESOME!

How did the head get knocked off, but the rest of the statue is more or less intact?

It's a question of high kinetic in a concentrated space. Why do bullets penetrate people and blow limbs off instead throwing them completely backwards?
