Merriam-Webster gives two definitions for Mishap:

1. an unfortunate accident
2. bad luck

The Oxford Advanced American Dictionary defines it as:

1. a small accident or piece of bad luck that does not have serious results

Yes, it’s somewhat ironic. More so when you look at definitions of ‘accident’ such as:

an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury.
"he had an accident at the factory"

​​​​​​​which actually fit the definition intended precisely!
