What exactly does "kablooey" mean in this context?

My friend recently told me he remembered something "like kablooey". I'm pretty sure he was trying to tell me he remembered it quickly. However, I'm also aware that "kablooey" is a synonym for 'haywire'. Did he use the word right?

No, he didn't. Your definition is the correct one. Maybe he meant "Shazam!"

Every time I hear that word, it makes me think something has blown up or exploded. :=}

No I don't think he used it correctly.
