Examine your error logs for more information.

You can try to rebuild your indexes from scratch.  For example, using zebra:
rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -r

Given your description, we would expect this to fail.  So then check your
zebra error logs.  It sounds like you have encoding that is causing errors
some record(s) to be impossible to parse.  You may be able to determine more
by viewing the biblioitems.marcxml field on the mysql command line.
