How to kill this if you have a auto... Be quick and choke the air intake (easier said than done a snorkel will make it easier)
Have a C02 extinguisher and fire it direct into air intake to starve oxygen...
If it gets out of control.. Stay well back!

My dealer has also seen a few. the most common cause is after the tappets had been adjusted and the fuel return line which runs inside of the rocker cover has come adrift. when this line leaks it floods the sump and starts to by pass the rings which is why the oil is over full.
