$ man snmpcmd
:
-r retries
Specifies the number of retries to be used in the requests.
The default is 5.
-t timeout
Specifies the timeout in seconds between retries.
The default is 1.

Yes - see above.

The community string is validated by the agent.
If it receives a request with an unknown community string, then
it discards the request. It does *not* return an error response.
As far as the snmpget command is concerned, this looks like
a simple timeout, so it retries the request a few times, and then
gives up. Which is what you are seeing.
Crazy, I know - but that's what the SNMP specs require.
