The jet fuel was simply the ignition source. Spilling thousands of gallons between 3 to five floors. The real inferno was all the other shit (desks, walls, papers chairs, people) with a steady influx of oxygen to keep the fire raging. Asbestos removed from the steel beams behind the walls aided in their susceptibility to melt, add to that magnesium wheels burning their way between floors. When you ignite magnesium it will literally burn itself into the ground, and continue to burn even after being buried as it creates it's own oxygen. And for a chance at bonus points? How hot does a cutting torch get before it turns steel to butter?
The fuel cells are in the wings. Destroying those at the speed necessary to destroy those aircraft more than meets the criteria for the fuel to be dispersed so quickly that it would vaporize and ignite at the temperature of the now exposed temperatures if the combustion chambers. Instantly igniting anything that the fuel comes in contact with. As well as a magnesium fire from the wheels burning their way floor to floor, instantly igniting anything on any given floor they touch. Those fires would then travel down the elevator shafts, or up through. Include in this all the fire sucking air in from all the open windows now due the aircraft, and you have a nightmare scenario anyone living at the time is not likely to witness again. The only way to find out what happened, n how hot it got would be to rebuild the fuckers in the desert, put similar materials in all the floors and literally fly two more aircraft, during similar conditions weather wise, and watch what happens.

No steel structure has ever fallen from being set on fire.
