The mechanism used to wipe all available disk space is to create a very big file, filling up all the available disk space, and then wiping this file. Maybe for some reason, this process didn't finish correctly and this big file is still on your drive. You can try to start Tails again, mount you C drive, look for that file and delete it. That file is usually named oooooooo.ooo or something similar. You can also try to locate such file by setting up an administration password when staring and then executing the following command: file / -iname "*oooo*"
