Never mind - I just found the answer to my own question. Morgoth wanted to rule and control everything, and if that was impossible, he destroyed it. He was able to gain possession of the Silmarili, and I suppose that he was content with that.
It would mean (to him) that he rules not only darkness, but also light.
