Sorry, I forgot the conventional 
Basically, they're a very mild swear phrase. If broken at Himmel - kreuz - millionen - schinder - glump - miserabliges, you might find the component parts in a large dictionary, but I wouldn't bother making them part of your active vocabulary.Jaw exercise for fun only..

Nice little story!
But the german word for "handkerchief" is "Taschentuch".Nevertheless I find your little mistake very interesting from the holistic point of view, because the english word for "Handtuch" is "towel"! Never forget yours!
