I think you're exactly right -- the filter was triggered once and no other DNS 
lookups were performed.  Then multiple recipients were given, so you're seeing 
a rejection line for each one.  If you want to be absolutely sure, you could 
enable the "full-log-dir" option to capture one of these deliveries -- that log 
will show all the DNS traffic and all of the SMTP traffic.
