The kerosene odor is nothing to worry about. It's a common problem and the result of some petroleum product recently used in the home. Could be an oil based paint, a stain, wood finishing or sealer product, etc.
Any product that contains a flammable solvent or oil based product will do this. I bet you had one of those products used in the home? Prior to this, the dryer odor didn't exist and it will be gone as soon as the product dries.
Best thing to do is ventilate the house as best as possible. For the dryer, once the drying cycle is completed, set the control to AIR FLUFF for ten minutes. This will clear the odor from the clothes. Don't forget to switch the control back to the regularly used dry setting when done.
