Maybe you have 70652 records with "---" in them, and none with "+---" ?
It works fine in 3.23.38:
Your MySQL connection id is 2451 to server version: 3.23.38-log
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer
mysql> create table test ( field char(50) ) ;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.86 sec)
mysql> insert into test values ("aaa----bbb"),("aaa+---bbb");
Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 2 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql> select * from test;
+------------+
| field |
+------------+
| aaa----bbb |
| aaa+---bbb |
+------------+
2 rows in set (0.01 sec)
mysql> select count(*) from test where field like '%+---%';
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
| 1 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)
mysql> select count(*) from test where field like '%---%';
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
| 2 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)
