Yes, you'd be correct, there is one case of exactly that happening to an ICE car, with the overall insurance claim being so great ($100M+) that the US justice department has decided to take the case on themselves. It's absolutely crazy.

Interesting story, and that fire certainly happened in the worst possible spot, but it's far from the only ICE car fire ever.
