If they didn't take the rugs out and hose them down you had better -- the
stuff is flammable when dry (i.e. not mixed with water), at least according
to the bottle.  I haven't tried lighting any...

OTOH if they're soaking now and weren't before, then they maybe rinsed out
the coolant.  But I'm not sure it's a good idea to leave them in wet
either, sounds like an invitation to trouble.
