It's vaguely possible that the space is used in large files that are "covered" by the dev filesystem mounted in named's chroot, but I think it's more likely you have some filesystem corruption. Have you tried an fsck(8)? As usual, you would want good backups first, and then rebooting to single-user mode so you can fsck the filesystem without it being mounted. Good luck.
