You had policy-sources installed as well? I think it's expected behaviour in that case (policy-sources' %post scriptlet generates them from source).
I must be having a senior moment because I looked in the above directory and managed to confuse myself. If the rpmnew files are the newer files, why do they have the older date/time? Here is my ls:

When the policy rpm is installed(or updated) it puts the .rpmnew files in place. (the date is from when they were built on the build system). Then the policy-source package is installed and the files (policy.n and file_contexts) are built as part of the install(or update).
I always delete the .rpmnew file.
