I'm checking a dictionary now, to make sure.

It mentions two senses:

1. (actively) propel a crisis to a maximum (in order to create a revolution)

2. create the impression that a (crisis) situation is far worse than it is

I must admit I have only heard it used in the 2nd sense. I'm assuming it derives figuratively from the 1st sense.
