But the question remains WHY.

In essence, advertising. They build attachments for skidsteer machines. Doing stuff like this brings attention to their brand. In their own words (copied from their website):

"Why did we create the world’s first ever Skid Steer Mounted Flame Thrower? To answer a question with a question: why not? We love to push the limits of what is possible with these machines, and we knew a flamethrower combined with a skid steer would turn some heads. In order to best serve customers and showcase the products we sell online, we also invest heavily in the best photo and video content in the industry, so we knew our media team would be up to the task."

Hey, that's the first thought that came to my mind as well. And it IS in fact a great tool for that, so it does double duty. And while I lack any immediate zombie threat, don't have anything that needs being set on fire, and I don't own a skidsteer, I still kind of want one of these.
