I saw the same thing over the weekend to what looks like the entire Class B.
Here's a snip from a snort portscan log, I don't have the rest in front of me:

May 13 09:18:56 202.43.105.18:4760 -> xxx.140.18.139:10008 SYN ******S*
May 13 09:18:56 202.43.105.18:4761 -> xxx.140.18.140:10008 SYN ******S*
May 13 09:18:57 202.43.105.18:4762 -> xxx.140.18.141:10008 SYN ******S*
May 13 09:18:57 202.43.105.18:4763 -> xxx.140.18.142:10008 SYN ******S*

These are the hosts that scanned us for 10008 _yesterday_ (midnight to
midnight localtime). The kiddies/worms are already well over their quota
on this port for the whole week.

The first value is the number of packets (note, packets not necessarily
individual connection attempts) we were hit with. Four class C's and some 
change are routed past the device that logged these,

   338 195.166.230.3
  2102 217.80.46.242
    12 211.100.13.100
    10 211.114.177.139
    11 207.200.89.227
  2032 217.75.0.71
    10 203.164.147.132
     4 64.12.184.25
     7 207.200.89.193
     4 155.210.88.146
     5 209.249.232.66
  2128 213.73.6.98
  2107 211.20.160.238
  1653 211.175.142.204
     4 65.196.90.10

Someone earlier in the thread asked if there was a signature to these.
I obviously have not examined each and every one of these packets, but
I looked at the ones that sent over 1000 packets my way and there were
no obvious signs of crafting or other strange signatures (incrementing
IP ID, changing ISN, changing TCP timestamp, SYN with no extra flags,
stepping source port, etc.). They all look like Linux boxen tho'. Prolly
2.1.x?
