I’ve never heard of this and I’ve got absolutely no idea if this is a real thing or if you got pranked as someone said. But assuming it’s a real thing, I can think of two possible explanations why it went so badly for you:

First option, you used a toaster oven instead of a regular oven. The surfaces closest to the heating elements in this case get exposed to a lot more heat than the rest of what’s in the oven. If the heating element is exposed, it’s a toaster oven.

Second option, your oven’s temperature knob isn’t calibrated well enough so it got way hotter than it needs to be. Honestly I’ve got no idea how well these are usually calibrated. I have the exact same model toaster oven as my parents and theirs gets way hotter for the same knob position. But it’s a cheapo brand (I can barely bring myself to call it a brand) so I hope it’s better in the broader market, and maybe proper ovens are better calibrated than microwave-sized toaster ovens.
