These are "cloned" interfaces. I guess in this particular
case they are from ef(4) pseudo-device which enables different
Ethernet frames support, see man 4 ef.

To find why you got them, check your kernel config file (and consult LINT),
or your loader.conf file for the string

if_ef_load="YES"

HTH,
Igor
