Strange domain-udp signature

From: Sudom, Don (dsudom1wcb.bc.ca)

I am seeing the following tcpdump signature targeted at our DNS server
and being repeating from hundreds of sources.
I have performed some traceroutes back to a few of the sources and the
hop count is consistent with the ttl.
Note the timing between packets. I don't host the in-addr.arpa PTR
record as well.
Has anyone else seen this activity? Can you tell me if this a tool, a
trojan or some form of a worm?
