Do you think there is any chance that the engine is sucking oil or trans fluid etc in somehow and running without the normal fuel feed and parking it nose up removes the source of fuel? Sort of a run away diesel but at idle speed?

Talked to someone on the net this morning who has a 1980 W123 300CD that does 
not want to shut off. Neither the vacuum shutdown nor the emergency shutoff 
under the hood would stop the engine. They discovered that if they parked it on 
an incline with the nose up, it would stop.

My question is solely in regard to the nose up issue. Why would that cause the 
engine to stop?
