You tell us.
Regardless, is your data still intact? Make sure it's safe, rip out
mysql, and re-install.
Binaries don't just "become text files" by themselves. This takes human
intervention in one way or another. How secure is your network? Have
you checked your system for intrusions? How many people have access
to your system? What's their level of skill on the system?
If you still have your data files, all may not be lost.
