It has happened before. They just swept it under the rug and blamed the client.
A user was setting up a new laptop and synced an empty folder with google drive, intending to download accounts data to their machine. It bugged and treated the empty folder as the master and began erasing the drive contents.
After two weeks of pestering google, they relented and pulled from their backups they swore they didn't have and didn't exist.
