Audi 1999 A6 Quattro Battery caught on fire.
Car isn't a smartphone and so the battery is very unlikely to spontaneously combust - in 45 years of being associated with car batteries I have never even heard of it. When something like that happens there is always an external reason and finding and correcting that reason is really quite important if a repeat is to be avoided.
There might be a connection with your non-start or it might be a combination of age and condition and perhaps also the car is in a bad mood.
If I was faced with your problem I would, before assuming the solution to be complicated, prevent the fuel pump operating by disconnecting it or drawing the fuse and then crank the engine with the throttle held wide open.
The symptoms you describe are far from uncommon for an ageing vehicle and what it amounts to is an engine flooded with fuel, a situation that doesn't improve as long as injection continues. A clean set of spark plugs might be wise...
