Well, on the one hand, if it never does that again then no... but if it does, then yes...

The only clue I get is the one hour. It suggests possibly a "hot soak" problem. Was the car fully warmed up when you parked it (half hour drive or more)? What was the outside temp? Some parts susceptible to hot soak in general are Crank Position Sensors and Coils. But it could be something else. Did you do a search?

This thread might pertain:

E240 stalling problem - engine temperature sensor?
