Ooo~ what if instead of Rods of God we had the Piñata of God?
A spinning mass of metal blocks with ceramic interlocking joints. Reenters and gains considerable thermal energy, then detonates and can spread hot slag over an area the size of Shanghai?
There could potentially be enough individual fires, that management of them will quickly become impossible.
If you hit it before detonation, good for you, you might be slightly less than optimally fucked.

You know, on top of every other problem with this. This would not be a precision weapon.
The only possible use I could think of is starting a forest fire in the most comically inefficient way possible.
