The only 'safe' step now is to delete all of my .scid and .dly files since that is the only way I know to be certain that all of my data is 'fresh'. That's 1997 files in this case.

We do not recommend you do this. It should not be necessary.

What you experienced is simply a missing data problem. Sometimes historical data downloads fail for various reasons and when they do, in the case of Continuous Futures Contract charts, depending upon what specific data is missing there may not be a retry. It is not unusual for this condition to occur. When you see missing data just simply download the missing data according to the instructions given.
