Probably silently wrong values happening in memory somewhere. If it's not in something where that value is not actively running code code, you probably won't have a crash.
If it's in (say) Excel calculation formula it'll probably just screw up the calculation. Which may or may not be obvious. Similar thing for 3D cad, it could be completely non-obvious.
