I've had umpteen IPs knocking on this door yesterday. The router blocked them, so it's not a problem, but why that port?
any chance you were running a torrent client, like to download the centos ISOs, which may have been using that port?
also, who knows, but there could be some new trojan/worm that listens on that port, so the botnets are trying to find each other... its more common for trojan/worms to connect out rather than in, but almost anything goes in the malware world...
