That can be caused by a module starting to fail, or a connection that just has enough resistance to mess around with the bus voltages. I would suspect that if the modules saw a really low voltage momentatily, even during cranking, that it could cause this. I would start by unplugging the cluster and spraying the terminals with electronic cleaner, then blowing them dry with compressed air and reseating them. Then do a 10 minute battery disconnect and see if it makes a difference.
