If those vehicles were parked in 5 garages, there would have been 5 garage fires yesterday morning.
A motor vehicle contains many types of flammable materials, including flammable liquids like gasoline and oil as well as solid combustibles such as hose. Fuel leaks from ruptured fuel lines also can rapidly ignite, especially in petrol fuelled cars where sparks are possible in the engine compartment. Fires with casualties have been caused by ozone cracking of nitrile rubber fuel lines for example.
Vehicles house multiple potential sources of ignition including electrical devices that may short circuit, hot exhaust systems, and modern car devices such as air bag detonators.
The adjuster/investigators will ascertain how the fires were intentionally set. I'm sure the Secret Service has all sorts of little incendiary goodies in their arsenal.

It was not, as I can ascertain 5 separate fires , was one vehicle which caught fire from at yet undetermined cause , which then extended to neighboring vehicles

How does one car burn in the engine compartment only then spread to just the 5 cars related in the rental and burn exactly the same way, or better yet spread at all, or even better yet, how does an engine compartment even catch fire...lol
These are the rental vehicles that were facing each other and had their front ends totaled by the fire. Five are being towed away:
