It draws on the idea that a sudden rush or onset of extreme intoxication (really high) is like being hit by an atomic bomb.
Smoking a joint in the parking lot of a nightclub in weather below -5C, gives you a little buzz. However, when you go inside to a very warm dance floor you suddenly realize how incredibly stoned you are.
