Two possibilities to explore:

(1) The machine is more fragile than you think, and the CPU load from
the Tor process pushed it over the edge, so one of its automatic hardware
sensors shut it off to protect it.

(2) Some admin on your local network noticed a bunch of weird traffic,
or even just a bunch of traffic, and thought they were helping by turning
it off.
