Simply, run the command chmod -R g-rwx,o-rwx /root as root. Of course, I few minutes later I booted back up in with a recovery USB stick and set the permissions back to normal but now I'm curious why would this brick my system?

That's not what bricking is, I think.

Removing the BIOS/UEFI encountered at startup, on the other hand........
