"Lightning speed" is not often used to describe someone literally moving at the speed of lightning, but rather emphasizing that the person is just moving really fast.

It's a fairly common idiom.

Abstractions is correct. Ordinarily such a statement of "lightning speed" or "fast as lightning", depending on context, isn't taken to mean literally the speed of lightning on here.
 
Yeah, I tend to ignore such statements from authors if it doesn't show more basis for them. There are so many use of it in novels that usually it contradicts with what the characters do and what its stated - 'lighting speed' and the character x moves faster than light or barely covers several kilometres.
