Ron,
The horror! The horror!
The only real issue is the RPM difference. A abrasive cutoff saw and more
importantly, the abrasive disk is designed for 3200 - 3600 RPM. Most wood
miter saws operate from 4000 to 5400 RPM. Abrasive disks do not work well
out of their operational range.

Assuming that information is correct, the use of an abrasive wheel would be
a horrible idea. Over revving abrasive wheels of any kind is a terrible
idea. Exploding wheels have a way of killing people. Before choosing to
run the setup, it would be a very good idea to verify the speed of the saw
to insure the cutoff wheel was run within safe limits. Very nice catch,
Dave. That one got past me.
