We are seeing them from 74.125.0.0/16, which is a range owned by Google, and they resolve to '*.1e100.net', a domain owned by Google. I do not know why they originate there; from the queries it seems that they may be the resolvers in use by the crawler bots, Gmail, or their open resolvers. I am speculating about the purpose of those requests, of course, but I am not making them up ;-) Also, they seem perfectly well behaved.
