Videos below detailing the issue shows that multitasking between apps seems to trigger the BSOD. iPhone 5S users are also reporting random reboots during device use.

The blue screen reboots appear to be iPhone 5S specific and are largely occurring with Apple's own iWork apps that come free with all new iOS devices.

While Apple has released iOS 7.0.2 to primarily fix lock-screen security bugs, the latest version does not address the reboot issues
Several threads on Apple's support forums highlight the problem, and a number of Twitter users have also expressed their frustrations.
One workaround to alleviate the iWork-related reboots is to disable iCloud syncing for Apple's Pages, Keynote, and Numbers apps.
