The smell in propane is added to it. It is a liquid and it settle out into the bottom of the propane tank. Over time you get more of it than is needed in the tank. So when you ran it dry you more than likely had a bunch of it come into the house.
Now to be sure I would soap/water test the shut off valves. See if they maybe leaking around the stems. If they have not been used much then they could be leaking. Even if the pilot light will not light there is still low pressure in the line. If the valve is leaking you could still be getting enough to smell and explode even though your pilot light/stove will not lite. So do a leak check and shut the value off at the tank. Even better is to remove and cap the line at the tank. This way you know 100% that it is not leaking.

One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
