Strong winds and high temperatures have made the fires more severe.
The 38C (100F) temperature recorded in the northern part of the planet sounded an alarm over the changing climate.
The record was verified by the World Meteorological Organization on Tuesday.
The average daily maximum for June was 18C higher than the temperature.
The extreme heat was more suited to the Mediterranean than the north, according to the WMO.
It is the first time that the agency has included the Circle in its archive.
The 38C temperature was measured at a meteorological station during a long and exceptional heatwave in Siberia.
Last year's extreme heat in the region contributed to the spread of wildfires, which swept across the forests and peatlands of northern Russia releasing record amounts of carbon.
Strong winds and high temperatures made the fires severe.
One of the three warmest years on record was in 2020 because of the high temperatures in Siberia.
The Verkhoyansk record was verified by the WMO and it showed how temperatures were increasing in a region of the world that is important.
The WMO Secretary-General said that the new record in the northern part of the planet sounded the alarm bells about the changing climate.
The agency said it had added the Arctic Circle to its World Weather and Climate Extremes archive.
The WMO said that the Arctic is one of the fastest warming regions in the world.
The thaw of once permanently frozen permafrost is being caused by warming in thearctic.
Carbon dioxide and methane are released when the ground thaws.
Positive feedback is a vicious cycle that can be caused by greenhouse gases.
The higher temperatures cause land ice in the north to melt at a faster rate, leading to a rise in sea-level rise.
Climate change is threatening every aspect of human life because of human activity.
Climate change will lead to mass extinction of species, with worsening droughts, greater sea level rise and more.
