Rolled into and others

I have lots of questions guys so thanks for your patience...
I couldn't find on the dictionary "Rolled into" ...

What is "passing through" here?

burning up the list? what is that a slang?

more scorchingly I think it means fast but maybe this word comes to say something else?

"million copies sold its first week on the street." How comes milion copies on the street?

"The selection of Obama had yet to be announced when Bill Clinton rolled into Chicago on July 2, 2004. The
former president was passing through on the book tour for
his memoir, My Life,"which was burning up the bestseller
lists even more scorchingly than his wife’s had done—a
million copies sold its first week on the street.
