Since we know he is talking about firefighters, why do you think he would suddenly shift to talking about the building?
Context. You need it.

"Pull it" in demolition terms referrs to literally pulling the building down with cables and heavy equipment, and is done on smaller buildings.
Now, "pull it" in firefighter terms (which yes, it is, and is used quite often) referrs to "pulling" firefighters back from the building to maintain the safety of those firefighters.

Are there not at least one or two things to give you cause for concern about Larry Silverstein's " pull it " quote ?
Like :-
(a) Why would he freely talk about it on tv if it was part of not only an insurance scam but mass murder on a
horrendous scale ?
(b) Why would Industrial Risk Insurers pay $861 million dollars in repect of WTC 7 if Silverstein had publicly announced he had called for its deliberate destruction ?
The FEMA report on the collapses, from May, 2002, also says about the WTC 7 collapse: "no manual firefighting operations were taken by FDNY."
Management replied that it relied on official US government reports which made no mention of such evidence.

WORLD TRADE CENTER TASK FORCE INTERVIEW
CAPTAIN ANTHONY VARRIALE
Interview Date: December 12, 2001
At that time, other firefighters started
showing up, Deputy Battalion Chief Paul Ferran of the
41 Battalion, and James Savastano of the First Division
assigned to the Second Battalion showed up and we
attempted to search and extinguish, at the time which
was small pockets of fire in 7 World Trade Center. We
were unaware of the damage in the front of 7, because
we were entering from the northeast entrance. We
weren't aware of the magnitude of the damage in the
front of the building.
We made searches. We attempted to put some
of the fire out, but we had a pressure problem. I
forget the name of the Deputy. Some Deputy arrived at
the scene and thought that the building was too
dangerous to continue with operations, so we evacuated
number 7 World Trade Center. At that time, some of my
members went with another officer, I don't remember who
it was, to try and search the collapse of -- I guess
the number one tower on Vesey Street.
