Monitor or is it the video card fan kicking up?

I'd believe this is a video card fan more than the monitor. And this is normal at that zoom level. I get the same thing zooming out further where I hear the fan kick up as more is being rendered.

Many games will render less details the further you get from something to stop hammering your GPU as much and to save on performance. However, this doesn't appear to be the case for Factorio when you zoom beyond the normal zoom limits. So you are rendering far more at the same detail levels.
