For 169.254.50.3 whois returns "ERROR:  IP Range Reserved by IANA.org"

The table at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space lists
the purpose of this address range as "Various Registries."

I don't know what that's all about, but I suspect it has something to
do with the IPv6 encapsulation mentioned earlier in this thread.
