I'm not sure. "Pitch" can mean "tension" or "excitement," often in the phrase "things had reached a fearful pitch." If he had said "things have reached a fearful pitch," or "feelings here are at a high pitch," it would mean tension was so high that there was danger that it would explode into violence.
