Auto batteries contain Sulfuric acid and all batteries produce a very small amount of hydrogen gas which is highly volatile. If the battery is overcharged it will produce more hydrogen gas than the vents on the battery can safely release. Any spark can then cause an explosion. Also connecting a jumper cable in reverse can cause the battery to explode.
