more likely is the wires to ignition switch are twisted together. the heat melted the insulation and closed the circuit

the conductors for the horn, also on the steering wheel, are likely in the same wire bundle which explains why that circuit also closed

It still doesn't explain how the van moved. When a vehicle is off the transmission prevents it from moving. Even when you crank the engine you must physically move the transmission into gear.

Manual transmission. Parked in neutral with the ebrake applied. Parked on a very very slight hill. Fire got to the plastic to wire connection, melted the plastic and disengaged the ebrake.
