Seems that it was a unit raised to provide a garrison for Zeeland; hopefully this link works...

There are other mentions found in Google books. There seems to have been, by the way, a bit of a pattern of the Dutch raising local legions of this form...but it seems that legion was particularly associated with the 5th...
