This could be e.g. a math-only character outside math (or vice versa) that
triggers a math-toggle ("inserted $") in TeX's error handling.
As "toggle" implies, after that math is seen as text and text as math which
leads to a mass of follow-up errors.
There are several such scenarios where a single "wrong" character can
disturb the TeX engine and lead to scores of errors. And this character
might have been input unadvertedly (e.g. while thinking that the focus is in
another window).
BTW: instead of cutting text in most cases it helps to just put
it in a note (mark it and Insert>Note>Note).
