Did the flood need to happen? Why would God kill everyone on Earth just to send them to hell? Couldn't he just have snapped his finger and wiped them out of existence?

Actually, at the time that story was made, they didn't believe in hell. Everyone who died went to the same place (Sheol). But yeah, God had literally an infinite number of options, yet he chose the one that involved having to do a bunch of magic to make it happen, do a bunch more magic to make things survive afterward, then finally do a bunch of magic to make the evidence go away.
