This is exactly why they let them in, they obviously weren't going to be able to stop anything without military support.

The barriers seemed to be working fine until they were opened.
At the very least, if the police felt afraid and helpless, they could have backed down and the terrorists could have opened it themselves. The officers actually physically helped them break the law. That is above and beyond.
It's no different than when mass looting happens. Sometimes the police have no choice but to stand back and observe. But you don't see them go and hold the doors open for them.
