I suspect laptop-mode-tools is the culprit:

http://sources.debian.net/src/laptop-mode-tools/1.64-1/usr/share/laptop-mode-tools/modules/laptop-mode?hl=418#L418

set_sysctl /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs   "$U_AGE"

and

usr/share/laptop-mode-tools/modules/laptop-mode:        
U_AGE=$((100*$DEF_UPDATE))
usr/sbin/laptop_mode:DEF_UPDATE=5

→ there you have your 500
