That doesn't sound out of the ordinary to me.  It's quite possible the
traffic is very bursty on the other end.  Change your load-interval to
30 and see if that gives you a better idea of what's going on.  My guess
is that you have something on the far end that's just nailing something
big from a LAN or whatever it's happening quickly and you're not seeing
it in the 5 minute averages.
