Two reasons why the decimation of the Assyrian army in Judah in the days of Hezekiah is significant:  

-
1. There is a unique correlation and agreement from three sources of this biblical event from over 2700 years ago:  

a. Bible (Isaiah 36-37, 2 Kings 18-19, 2 Chronicles 32) 

b. Archaeological finds in Israel and Assyria 

c. Assyrian written records  

-
2. The biblical authors present and remember the event as parallel to the destruction of the Egyptian military at the Reed Sea.   Both events - the defeat of the Egyptian army at the Reed Sea, and the defeat of the Assyria army in Judeh - are evidence that Yahweh is the Supreme God and that He is with Israel/Judah.
