[Peter T.]

I believe either the jack or breaker bar made contact with the battery terminal(s). I was driving home at the time and the last couple of blocks were a little hairy with me hanging my head out the window trying to breath due to the smoke filled cabin. Once in the driveway, I was able to smother the fire with my car cover (may it rest in peace). Only afterward did I go into shock when considering the consequences of the fuel tank being directly beneath the flames... an extinguisher and battery cover were my next two purchases!
