I ran a query on this looking at my August email results (228889 emails):

Excluding HELOBOGUS
Excluding (timeout) and [No Reverse DNS] and (Private IP)
Looking at last 4 chars of helo <> last 4 chars of revdns

1487 ham:
including gov / us mismatches
a fair amount of .com / .org with DSL / CABLE static revdns
small amount of valid mismatches shaw.ca / shawcable.net mindspring.com/earthlink.net. I've definitely seen this from some non US mailservers where a country code is in one and .net is in another.

19668 spam
lots of zommbies,especially non-US
Fair amount of static spammers .net / .info mismatches for example

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Test idea


Idea! (Ouch)

If email failed HELOBOGUS or NOREVDNS (or other specified tests) END
otherwise compare the last 3 characters of the HELO with the last 3
characters of the REVDNS and if not match add say 1/5 or so of HOLD weight.

Thoughts, comments, boos, yahs, Go back to sleep (Can I Please?)
