There is no way for the ESC to shut down the system due to motor overheating. If the motor overheats it will still operate until it eventually burns up and melts the plastic/rubber coating around the rotor.
There is definitely something wrong with your gearing if your motor overheats and melts.
Are you running a separate temp probe or did you use a temp gun to see how hot the motor got?
