Hmmm..
10% ethlylene glycol in water protects to -3C
20% " -8C
50% (1:1) " -35C
70% " -64C

However pure ethylene glycol freezes at -12.9C (but most anti-freeze isn't pure EG, there's dye in it + various corrosion inhibitors)

I could agree with you that running with 10% antifreeze because the temperature was only 0C might lead to windchill of the radiatior below -3C, but only while the enging wasn't running.
