I have seen that before, though not in ProcessWire. But feasibly it can happen anywhere. It's what happens when MySQL gets abruptly killed when it's writing data or building an index (like if your webhost did an emergency reboot of the server or the process). You need to run a 'REPAIR TABLE field_body;' in a MySQL client. If you've got PhpMyAdmin, just check the box next to that table and click repair.
