OK, this doesn't look good.  Somehow, that file appears to contain a load 
of \0 characters.

Looking into where exactly in the file this appears (lines 14678-14688):

                set_resigntime(zone);
                UNLOCK_ZONE(zone);
        }

        isc_time_settoepoch(&zone->refreshkeytime);

        /*
         * If we're doing key maintenance, set the key refresh timer to
         * the next scheduled key event or to one hour in the future,
         * whichever is sooner.
         */

The null characters start exactly at 0x60000 into the file, a page 
boundary:

005ffd0  6e 74 69 6d 65 28 7a 6f 6e 65 29 3b 0a 09 09 55 |ntime(zone);...U|
005ffe0  4e 4c 4f 43 4b 5f 5a 4f 4e 45 28 7a 6f 6e 65 29 |NLOCK_ZONE(zone)|
005fff0  3b 0a 09 7d 0a 0a 09 69 73 63 5f 74 69 6d 65 5f |;..}...isc_time_|
0060000  73 65 74 74 6f 65 70 6f 63 68 28 26 7a 6f 6e 65 |settoepoch(&zone|
0060010  2d 3e 72 65 66 72 65 73 68 6b 65 79 74 69 6d 65 |->refreshkeytime|
0060020  29 3b 0a 0a 09 2f 2a 0a 09 20 2a 20 49 66 20 77 |);.../*.. * If w|

So, at least one whole page has been replaced by a page of zeros.  This 
feels like it could actually be a VM issue, though it could also be 
storage.  What drives are you using on this system (AHCI?  SSD?), and are 
you using anything like e.g. geom_mirror?  A full dmesg may be useful.
