Core Distance to TjMAX randomly spikes to 100°C in OCCT (lemmy.ml)

Recently I tried to clean my PC with an I5 11400F CPU. I removed the GPU and wanted to remove the CPU cooler too but couldn't do it. I tried though and I think I might have damaged the motherboard with a screwdriver in a few places during the process (don't ask how). Can it be the reason for the spikes? Like could I damage some sensors and now they sometimes fail and show 0°C (which is what 100°C to TjMAX means)? There are no other visible issues with the PC though so I guess it can be a just a bug. Btw I can't add screenshots because of some weird Jerboa bug

The temperatures don't spike and are completely normal though, even in stress tests. Maybe OCCT calculates the value and it fails because of freezes caused by stress tests? I don't even see the 100°C on the live sheets. It just appears in the max column smh and stays there all session (as it should)
