Had a funny similar thing, there’s some weird person/people that randomly probe and attack a specific game’s community hosted dedicated servers; and one week this specific IP address out of Virginia was just hammering one of mine, with what amounts to a specific byte sequence, then an incrementing number of the packet (until it wrapped around). Then it stopped. Weird shit.
It’s possible it was something misconfigured, a poorly-written script, or a bug in some software causing unexpected behavior. At the scale of the Internet, all of those are very possible.
It could also be the Internet equivalent of a numbers station.
