Well a Dyne is a measure of force. The conversion factor is 100000 Dynes = 1 Newton or 444820 Dynes = 1 pound-force. So I would assume that DynDNS is the amount of force required to push you Domain Name through the Servers to you web site.  Actually I think kunal's guess may be better.

robkerry,
Not according to "Elementary Principles of Chemical Processes 2nd Edition" by Richard M. Felder and Ronald W. Rouseau of the Department of Chemical Engineering, North Carolina State University. It is 444820 exactly.
etlux,
Actually, I was surprised that you had not jumped on this earlier, or maybe I am reading too many of your posts.

For those few who care, a dyne is a centimeter-gram-second unit of force, equal to the force required to impart an acceleration of one centimeter per second per second to a mass of one gram.
Either that, or it's something to do with very old animals.

Actually, that was courtesy of the 1937-1938 "Handbook of Physics" -- Pierce, Smith; published in Great Britain, 1938 (autographed, incidentally, by physicist George F. Manley).
