I wondered too when I saw the announcement before it was lit.
It was explained the pyre was packed, mixed (?) with coal, straw, and saturated with fuel.
To me it seemed very well thought over.
Seeing the fire and how long it lasted I have no doubt this was a very professional job.
I very much doubt there could be "cold spots' in a fire like that.
