For some reason your DNS server may be sending a query for an illegal
single-label top level domain, there was a case a few weeks back, DNS was
querying the ISPs DNS for localhost that was causing the 5504. Creating a
zone named localhost with a blank host with IP 127.0.0.1 stopped the 5504s.
We never figure out why DNS was trying to resolve localhost because machines
should not be sending queries for localhost to DNS in the first place,
localhost should be resolved in the hosts file and should not even go to
DNS.
