I have a bunch of them too. They would appear to contain zone data. I
imagine the zone transfer puts them into these tmp files which are moved
into place and somehow the transfer got interrupted or something.
My observation: there are a few Linux-based application programs that
create files in /tmp and leave them there forever. Just sloppy
programmng.
They get reaped by tmpwatch after 10 days of non-use.
