It's hard to say without being there in the moment. I would have to factor in what kind of play I've seen from him previously. If I haven't seen enough from him, I might let him have this one and keep an eye on him. After all, if I'm doing my math right, he's jamming more than 6K into a pot that with less than $1k in it. I might let get away with it once. If he's bluffing, this might embolden him to try it again later. If he's really trying to blow his stack off to me, all I have to do is wait. He'll give it to me sooner or later.
That being said, calling with top pair/top kicker is far from being out of the question. After all, you would probably expect someone with that good a hand to make a smaller raise to try to make sure he doesn't chase you out of the pot. So it does look like a kind of fishy play, the kind I've seen from plenty of idiots eager to jam all there chips in the second they think they might be ahead, even if it's just with top pair and a weak kicker. That's actually one of my weaknesses. I've seen so many players make so many ridiculous plays that I tend to be skeptical when I see something like this.
