If something did go BOOM in a die, I would imagine that it wouldn't be nearly as disasterous as one would think.
Dies are not hermetically sealed, and I would think that the blast would go out the ends of the dies, propelling the cartridge out of the die, one way or the other. Dies are made out of pretty tough steels, and should be able to handle the explosion...
Thankfully, since this hasn't happened to any of us here (knock on wood), or to anyone we know, I hope my theory is never proven.
