Default Solitaire weirdness

I was cloning a mechanical hard disk to a new SSD replacement last night. All went well, and the machine booted successfully from the new SSD after I swapped it for the old drive. However, when I played Microsoft solitaire and won a game, it awarded me over 4 trillion points for the game and updated my stats accordingly (subsequent games are recieving the usual number of points.)

Now that I am at level 818,250 I guess I won't have to play again for the next couple of centuries.

I am guessing a bit-flip changed the inner app data. Right?

I remember the tagline from the trailer: "What is the secret of Soylent Green?"
