Wow: that is unreal! What caused that??
Never heard of a runaway diesel? It's when a uncontrolled source of fuel (i.e. engine oil) enters the intake and the engine goes into max rpm mode.
Nearly 10 years ago there was a large explosion at a BP refinery in the area. There was a Ford SD Powerstroke diesel truck nearby, and it went into runaway mode due to combustible fuel getting sucked into the intake. Very strange scenario.
