"Warmest" in terms of highest daily average year around it's probably Darwin. Towns in the Outback may have a higher daily maximum, but at night temperature drops significantly which results in lower daily averages.
If you like have a look at some climate charts of australian towns; they will tell you which temperture ranges (daily max, daily min also precipitation) where to expect in each month:

The statements about Marble Bar are confused. Its record is the longest period of consecutive days with a maximum temperature above 38°C. Overnight the temperature dropped well below that but it rose again each day.
The highest official temperature recorded in Australia is 52.8°C at Oodnadatta in northern South Australia. Cloncurry in northwest Queensland claims 53.1°C but this was recorded on non-standard equipment.
