Huge MMC?

Terry has frequently mentioned that RMS current will kill our MMC caps.

How peak current sensitive, and voltage sensitive are they?

I was wondering if a string of 2 or maybe 3 1600 volt caps would withstand a 
10Kv charge to be part of an MMC for a Quarter Shrinker type device, or 
exploding water, or any of the other pulsed power devices.
Could an MMC of ________(fill in type/number) caps compare with a surplus 
Maxwell cap from Surplus sales of Nebraska?

Thanks,
Michael.
