I mean I heard somewhere that this planet we are on travels at something like 62,000 kph or mph ... which ever (I cant remember to be honest). Not so suprising then that an object which falls to earth from space would also be traveling at ridiculous miles an hour??

This thread and its title is stupidly overhyped. Its not a UFO crashing. It doesn't look like a UFO crashing. I wonder if the OP works for a National Enquireresque organisation?

Well spotted! The supposed Saudi video is is a con.
You've posted an interesting compilation of fireballs/bolides. Notice that most emit a blue-green light. The color of the Saudi bolide (according to the description, not the video) indicates it's typical of bolides.
There is no evidence that the Saudi meteor landed on Earth. It's downward path simply shows its direction of travel in space. Most bolides either disintegrate to dust or continue on into space. The Sweden event was a rareity.
