Author Ray Bradbury never did any fact-checking in regards to the title. He asked a fire chief temperature where book paper burned, and was given the answer "451 degrees Fahrenheit." He liked the title so much, he didn't bother to see if it was the correct temperature. Actually, the chief went to burn an actual book, because he didn't know the answer when Bradbury asked him; he read the temperature with a thermometer.
