  I can only think that the fridge or something was running on gas or something else caused a spark to ignite the fumes.. It would be extremely dangerous though.

  It has an autogas pump. I wonder if there was a problem with filling a "dodgy" cylinder although, had that been the case, I would have thought there would be a serious burns casualty.

   There's a Travelodge right next door as well.

  Well as you can see, it was dangerous. There's enough signs is petrol stations stating "no naked flames"
