5 controls, a fitting honor, and two spare queens.
That is a monster after a SJS to 3D.

I like to play weaker SJS than most respondents, but Kx,Axx,AQxxx,Kxx
seems
like the minimum he should have given your cards. That hand gives 10 sure
tricks, and two more if either the spades or diamonds split, so I'm not
stopping below 6N.
Even Kx,Axx,AKQxx,xxx is enough for 7D so I've got to look. I would
like to use RKC for diamonds and check on the SK if all keys are there.
I cannot bid a direct 4N, which is quantitative, so I start with 4D so my
[hoped for] next 4N will be RKC for D.
