737NG after RTO

hi all,
i am reading the 737 QRH Recommended Brake Cooling Schedule,
there are some instructions below those diagrams.
and i have some questions here:
a. Add 1.0 million foot pounds per brake for each taxi mile.
is that mean we need add 1.0 million foot pounds energe when taxi ,no matter there is brake apply on the wheels?
b. after the RTO, if the brake get very hot , sometime we need to extent the gear after the takeoff for couple minutes, if we foget to do so ,is there any chance to generate the wheel well fire?

thanks ~
