What kind of temperature gauge? If it is a bodily thermometer, the thermometers probably have a maximum temperature they can actually measure, that or whoever designed them knew that above a certain temperature you would just be dead, and thus instead of reading 150 degrees it just says hot. I can't think of another thermometer that would just read out "hot".
