heat went over 100, strawberries stopped producing from one day to the next.

I agree... all plants have temperature tolerance levels. Right now your strawberries are probably trying to save their energy and water and put it towards staying alive (not getting parched) as opposed to bearing fruit.
Also, all fruit plants need to be pollinized, in the hot summer weather sometimes the animals and insects that do so ALSO become inactive

It's true they just need a rest and break from Hot Temps. California can grow them because of cooler evening temperatures.

Bring them inside and put them in a sunny window. They should start right back up again.

It's just too hot for them. Keep watering them and they'll start again when it cools enough for them.
