Incidentally, the Firelord currently has five even ability scores and one odd ability score like the SRD Efreeti, but we could give it a few more odd ability scores if we wanted.
In the 5E SRD, a Djinni (STR 21, DEX 15, CON 22, INT 15, WIS 16, CHA 20) has three odd, three even, a Dao (STR 23, DEX 12, CON 24, INT 12, WIS 13, CHA 14) has two odd, four even and a Marid (STR 22, DEX 12, CON 26, INT 18, WIS 17, CHA 18) has one odd, five even like an Efreeti (STR 22, DEX 12, CON 24, INT 16, WIS 15, CHA 16). The Marid's odd ability is even Wisdom like the common Efreet.
In AD&D a Marid was stronger than an Efreeti but that doesn't seem to have carried over into 5E.
Hmm, I'm tempted to make the Firelord's STR and CHA modifiers both +6 - maybe STR 23, CHA 22 or STR 22, CHA 23 instead of STR 24, CHA 22? - but that seems contrary to the MC13 text that says they're obsessively proud of their muscles and are "powerful warriors, trained in magical and physical combat from avery young age" who delight in their "raw power".
Heck, that almost argues for an even higher STR than 24. I'm starting to wonder about giving it STR 25 so they're as strong as a Fire Giant, which seems very appropriate and won't necessitate any changes to our numbers.
