Sure. He was making poison, on a reasonable scale; he was planning to make further, more lethal poison, on a larger scale. He planned to release cyanide on the underground. He murdered and wounded rather than give in to arrestation. Oh, and the fact that there was nothing to indicate any quota of dead bodies that he hoped to fulfill.
Now, logic might suggest that he would have carried on regardless. The fact the he murdered whilst being arrested also suggests he would not have given up until he really had to... Or do you have a different logic? Doesn't seem such a huge leap to me, more a natural progression.
