This sounds like it could be a bad exit redirecting all your traffic through a VPN, while trying to attack you.
It's somewhat less likely to be a misconfiguration of the proxy settings on your bridge.
It's normal for tor to change exits occasionally.
Do you know which exit your tor client was actually using during that time?
If so, report it to bad-relays@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
