These are almost certainly periodicity artefacts. Look at your trajectory in a 
suitable visualization algorithm, and you will see (parts of) the complex cross 
boundaries at those points. See 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Periodic_Boundary_Conditions 
for discussion and solution approaches.
