If you look at /etc/protocols, PROTO=1, it is icmp protocol. Port 3 on both
Source machine and target is 'destination unreachable'. Your rule in
firewall script denies sending a 'dest. unreachable' info from your machine
to the ISP (or vice versa, I don't know which IP is your ISP, you get the
idea).
Port 3 and 11 are used for outgoing/incoming traceroute commands. Seems
that your ISP is maybe troubleshooting the connection to your box and you
are rejecting the output.
Take care,
Denis

It's rejecting (denying the packet with an ICMP response) packets from
24.221.123.186 with source port 3 to 24.221.30.4 with destination port 3.
Since it's not listed in /etc/services, I don't know what 24.221.123.186
is trying to find on port 3, but that's what's going on.
