Actually, the second I saw Zoom's (Thawne) name mentioned, it made perfect sense.

In the DC universe, Zoom manages to reproduce the chemical bath that gave Allen his connection to the Speed Force. If the 4 street drugs (all accelerants of some kind, depending on body chemistry) are derivatives of that research, then combined with the luck-of-the-draw energy feed you get a potential "Flash Treatment" and the World's Fastest CSI Member. And why would Big Fire be worried? What are the odds someone would put all those chemicals together and hit it with a supercollider at 10,000 percent of spec power? :)

If that little tidbit came out would neatly pin some or all of those street drugs squarely on Big Fire and Zoom in particular, but alas for the lack of cross-universe info sources...
