It's just the default onomatopoeic representation of snoring.2011-07-23 08:55:00

Because they can't figure out a simple way to represent a sound that's coming from a constricted airway.

Though tbh, I think it sounds more like GWWWWAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH,shhhhhhhhu than Zzzzzzzz.

I believe it originated in Comic Books in the early 20th century as a form of visual short-hand (it was also sometimes portrayed as a log being sawed);

In Japan, they don't have the "ZZZZZZ" sleeping shorthand convention;
they use a bubble coming out of a persons nose to indicate that they are asleep

That seems more like a sneeze than a snore.
