i think it's all about the reads. i know a whole group of players that would make this play with QQ and AK for sure (although they would probably push allin). I can see friends of mine making this play with TT and JJ and AQ too.
There are a load of players out there that will go allin pf with a lot of hands. Last night I saw this hand:
AKs vs AJo (deep) vs Q8o (short) vs 44 (deep) vs another weak hand (short). all the hands were allin pf. At this place I'm never folding KK pf in a million years and I move allin pf every single time no matter how they play it.
It seems that the quality of play is much better in the US and other parts of the UK and the world.
This hand is all about reads. If you know nothing at all about your opponent and he's just some random internet player at lower stakes - then you have to call.

why isn't setming/cf a viable line. you need to call $100 more and if you hit your set you're going to win a $1400 pot.

THIS IS AN EASY FOLD... even though villain is the big stack and loose i am presuming, he has already pegged you as a TAGG. Hence for him to 3-bet You, a TAGG he is only doing this with KK or better, QQ would call imo, if not this is an UBER AGGRESSIVE table one which you should not be playing at! the swings would be too much!
why would you not want to be playing at this table? if players are making loose plays that's good for you. variance will not be too much if you're properly bankrolled.

Something you should consider is that you did reraise huge. To some people, that looks more like QQ-TT than KK or AA.
He made a standard sized reraise. It wasn't huge at all. Anything less and you're betting too little.
