Thank you all, but irrespective of count i have why is it keeping old files? and how is it using those files? Is there any processes that can flush or remove those files?

They are in a subdir (under /opt/pgdata), and the OP seems likely to
have omitted the self/parent hidden directories during his check as

to account for 6 extra, just 5.
