Status code 0 as seen in nginx http access logs means that nginx
wasn't able to generate any reasonable status code, even some
generic failure like 500 (Internal Server Error), yet the request
was closed.

This usually happens due to some fatal issues, like unexpected
conditions (which might indicate a bug somewhere), unexpected
errors, or memory allocation errors if it wasn't possible to
return 500.

In most cases there should be additional details in the error log
explaining the reasons. If there aren't any, or reasons aren't
clear, it might be a good idea to dig further.
