### Describe the bug

When streaming a [large ASR dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sanchit-gandhi/concatenated-train-set) from the Hug (~3TB) I often encounter 502 Server Errors seemingly randomly during streaming:
```
huggingface_hub.utils._errors.HfHubHTTPError: 502 Server Error: Bad Gateway for url: https://huggingface.co/datasets/sanchit-gandhi/concatenated-train-set/resolve/7d2acc5c59de848e456e951a76e805304d6fb350/train/train-00288-of-07135.parquet 
```

This is despite the parquet file definitely existing on the Hub: https://huggingface.co/datasets/sanchit-gandhi/concatenated-train-set/blob/main/train/train-00228-of-07135.parquet
And having the correct commit id: [7d2acc5c59de848e456e951a76e805304d6fb350](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sanchit-gandhi/concatenated-train-set/commits/main/train)

I’m wondering whether this is coming from datasets? Or from the Hub side? 

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Reproducer:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader
from tqdm import tqdm

NUM_EPOCHS = 20

dataset = load_dataset("sanchit-gandhi/concatenated-train-set", "train", streaming=True)
dataset = dataset.with_format("torch")
dataloader = DataLoader(dataset["train"], batch_size=256, drop_last=True, pin_memory=True, num_workers=16)

for epoch in tqdm(range(NUM_EPOCHS), desc="Epoch", position=0):
    for batch in tqdm(dataloader, desc="Batch", position=1):
        continue
```

Running the above script tends to fail within about 2 hours with a traceback like the following:

Should be able to stream the dataset without any 502 error.

Hi! We should be able to avoid this error by retrying to read the data when it happens. I'll open a PR in `huggingface_hub` to address this.

Thanks for the fix @mariosasko! Just wondering whether "500 error" should also be excluded? I got these errors overnight:

```

Gently pining @mariosasko and @Wauplin - when trying to stream this large dataset from the HF Hub, I'm running into `500 Internal Server Errors` as described above. I'd love to be able to use the Hub exclusively to stream data when training, but this error pops up a few times a week, terminating training runs and causing me to have to rewind to the last saved checkpoint. Do we reckon there's a way we can protect Datasets' streaming against these errors? The same reproducer as the [original comment](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/6577#issue-2074790848) can be used, but it's somewhat random whether we hit a 500 error. Leaving the full traceback below:

@sanchit-gandhi thanks for the feedback. I've opened https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/pull/2026 to make the download process more robust. I believe that you've witness this problem on Saturday due to the Hub outage. Hope the PR will make your life easier though :)

Awesome, thanks @Wauplin! Makes sense re the Hub outage
