If you did a "dnf whatprovides" on those files you'd lean they were packaged with
firefox-60.0.1-6 and thunderbird-52.8.0-1.
I do not know the role they play. I suppose you could move them out of the way and
see if there are any adverse effects. Their removal may cause subsequent problems,
verification may fail, when those packages are updated.
