I think that when humans think of hot that we miss what is really going on, because hot to us is only a temperature thing. I believe it's better to think of 'Hot' in terms of speed, how agitated the particles are.

Given this, as things (electrons) speed up, they get hotter, thus the faster the speed the hotter. So given the speed limits imposed by our physics, there is an absolute top limit to the speed that can be reached (or temperature if you like).

This does not account for the ignition mechanism, it is just my farthing's worth so that it is easier to understand the theoretical aspects of this natural phenomena.
