It means that the outcome and intended outcome of an action were different, the person who did the action doesn't intentionally do it wrong or with malice, they just either didn't have an understanding of the actions which were being taken or were expecting a different outcome, which might have also occurred but didn't, to happen.
It is a mistake with no bad intent. An example would be a situation in which the waitress accidentally added the check incorrectly, overcharging the customer, but with no intention of keeping the extra money.
