You had a risk due to condom failure, as you were advised already. When a condom breaks during penetration, exposure time or number of strokes does not matter.

The single most severe disadvantage associated with a condom is, it provides 100% protection against HIV, only if it does not fail, but once it does, a totally protected sex turns otherwise all of a sudden. Therefore correct use of the condom is very important because prime cause of failure is the incorrect use.

Bottom line is that the condom broke. You need to test.
Having, or not having an orgasm has nothing to do with contracting the virus.
