The output of the biggest desal plant in the USA (in San Diego) is miniscule compared to the needs of a fire event of this magnitude.

Your statement assumes the desal plant is connected directly to the fire hoses. You are leaving out the humongous capacity of a reservoir that sets in between. The desal plant can spend all year filling and topping off the reservoir so a few billion gallons will always be available to fight fires when needed.
