It can cause Outlook to take an excessive amount of time to close. The application may continue running in the background as it processes the deletions. The amount of time the application continues is dependent on the size of the .PST or .OST files; the larger they are, the longer the app continues to run. It may take as much as an hour to finish closing completely, as monitored with Task Manager and in the system tray.
