What does he think I have that I could possibly fold , cause he has the straighgt draw , may be the flush draw ?? He represents KQ , Kx ????? Was that a desperate shove for the pot??? I wouldn't do that personally
I time-delayed turn call , snap called river

He thinks you have a set, or As x (some players don't raise preflop with A), especially after you re-raised in the flop representing a nut flush draw, and because a set is theoretically 'weak' he keeps try to make a straight, river shove is a pure bluff

He thinks you have a lot of Qx, flush draws and Kxss, where you can find a fold on the river.
Their range in a call/check situation has all of the 5x to represent.
Of course this time you had it and your decision was very easy, but if you had a Qx type of hand, you would be in a tough spot.
In a vacuum I don't like villain's turn raise, since you shouldn't be folding a lot to it.

Probably you are right , if I had just Qx , my decision on the river would be very tough now that I think of it , then I would guess that he might had Kx at least and he wanted the game to end with his dominant hand . But still I would make the call with at least Qx in my hand-range I want to believe (don't kow how wrong this is ) , cause I have seen many times in the micros that I play , people bluffing big time .

A desperate game. Perhaps he portrayed trips. He knew that you Qx. I think he was just unlucky.

Some players like to give their chips away. After you raised him on the turn, he should have gotten the hint.

Villain was clearly unaware of how to bluff and just tried to get one through. If this were a $20 buy-in that doesn’t happen
