You are basically asking: Can you legally win a game of 8 ball pool in just two shots, including the break shot?
Sure you can do that.
As long as the break shot met all of the requirements of a legal break shot (which is sounds like it does in your scenario) then the breaking player continues play at the table with their choice of group.
Obviously the player will choose solids, since they all went down on the break shot. Their next available shot is for the 8-ball.
Now for the important question: did this actually happen to you? Did you actually pocket an entire group of balls on the break shot? If so, how about sharing some details.
