Hehe, gotta like cable modems. It sounds like someone may have accidentally/purposely setup a network interface on the public/routable side of your cable modem network, and you're seeing the traffic. Run a sniffer, and see what you get. Also, I'd run ipfw or ipf, and make sure your network is dropping &/or logging those arps and packets from entering your network, just in case someone's being snoopy/malicious.
