In the tax year 2005/2006, I was working part-time as a student for most of the year in the range of 400-700£/month. I got all old payslips from the university for that year, but I just realize that I have not paid any tax!

I do not understand why I did not pay tax. but will this be a problem to count this year as a qualifying year? I have an employment letter from the university starting in February 2015, as well as the payslips for that year, and all other P60s.

Failure to pay NI doesn't disqualify you from exercising treaty rights as a worker.

However, the Home Office may contact DWP who may start an investigation into the not paying tax issue.
