This is pretty standard for European /8. 53/8 is yet another example
(Germany has moved to five-digit zip codes since that entry was last
updated).
At a previous job, I tried to fix our netblocks in the ARIN database.
It turned out that legal representation in the U.S. was necessary, so
it wasn't worth the trouble. Fortunately, ERX cleaned it up for us a
few years later.
Looks like the legacy /8s still need to be ERXed.
