Given that you have already split the word document into separate files, 
Jeremy's answer is probably as good as there is. However, for the next time 
you need to do something like this, consider that you could have done the 
operation differently.

I import Word files into TiddlyWiki all the time and some of them are quite 
large. I open the document in Word and copy the entire document. I then 
paste it into TiddlyWiki creating one large tiddler. The copy and paste 
operation nearly converts the document into a text document but not quite 
and some of the formatting has to be repaired. Once I've saved the large 
tiddler, for many of my purposes, I'm done. When I need a small portion of 
the large tiddler, I can split it out simply enough. If you highlight the 
portion of the text in display mode and drag it to an open area of 
TiddlyWiki, say under the sidebar, and drop it there, TiddlyWiki will treat 
that as though you're importing a new untitled tiddler. You can then 
complete the import and rename that tiddler anything you would like. The 
net result is that you could do the entire operation in about the same 
amount of time as you have done already. 

An alternative approach is to get yourself a copy of TiddlyWiki Classic 
from Eric's TiddlyTools http://www.tiddlytools.com/ with the Quickstart 
Basics package. That includes an editor function that will allow you to 
split a large tiddler into smaller ones while leaving either links or 
transclusions in the main document to retain the order of the original 
document. Eric also has what I would call a powertool called SplitTiddler 
that will split the large tiddler automatically in a number of different 
ways including at a user defined section marker. Eric's tools will only 
work with TiddlyWiki Classic. However, once you have the document split up 
or refactored, you can then import the finished tiddlers into TW5.

Although TiddlyWiki was designed with small tiddlers in mind, I find it 
handles large ones just as well. You can leave the Word document as a 
single tiddler if that suits your needs or split it up as required. Next 
time you import a Word document, consider what you are actually trying to 
accomplish before you go to the effort of splitting it up.
