[ atoms ] section of the topology file lists and enumerates the atoms of your 
molecule. this should correspond to that from the .gro file of the molecule. 
in [ molecules ] part of the topology the number of the molecules should be 
mentioned correctly.

if you delete things from coordinate file, you should apply the proper change 
to the topology as well.

it seems you have more atoms in your gro than what is expected from the 
topology file. might want to find out why :)
