Misfiring generally produces lower temps as fuel isn't fully combusted.
Even then, those temps will still melt nylon that's pretty close.
I suspect the manufacturer's claims are bogus, or at least poorly written and they actually mean they can tolerate the heat radiating from the muffler, not the direct exhaust.
Anything in line of the exhaust will melt over time from the long duration of exposure.
