It means that packets are getting blocked after they go through
natd(8). You can log them by adding 'log' to rule 50000. But that
won't stop the messages you are seeing. You can stop the messages by
blocking the offending packets before the divert(4) rule. If you don't
want to do that, look for 'log_denied' in natd(8).
