You can get hydraulic pressures as high as this. Usually they are very low volume though. You don't store much energy in liquids and solids due to their low compressibility so the chance of explosions is a lot less.
Gasses can store tons of energy if you get them up to these pressures so it's a hazard to anyone near the thing. If you have gasses in your high pressure system and something fails it can result in shrapnel. Hydraulics can do something similar with spring forces in the casing of the machine, but it isn't nearly as energetic!
