DNS changes not propagating

I recently made a change to the DNS record for a customer - I updated the serial number (I use the yyyymmddnn format) to 2008100101. I HUPed named and checked to make sure it is running again. I dug at the primary nameserver and noticed that the change did not propagate - I ran nslookup with a "set type=soa" and noticed that the serial number is still the old serial number - 2006053001.

I have no idea what is happening. Does anyone have an idea where to look? It all works fine for other domains I handle.
