Given the typical garbage AP usually airs nowadays, likely not. However, it is possible, as many known hybrids do get a tad larger than both parent species, although the only reptile case I know of where this has happened is a siamese crocodile x saltwater croc hybrid.
In any case, a slight increase in size notwithstanding, the alleged Afrock x burm hybrid is not some huge invincible monster that will utterly turn the ecological balance of the Everglades on end. That special on AP was better suited as SyFy Channel b-movie fodder.
