I believe they are not duplicated, they are needed,

Some guys that use WSUS to patch are seeing similar thing:

I'm thinking the string at the end, is to be able to differentiate them somehow.

Looks like they are different language versions if you do a download and compare the file names from the update catalog: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4011610 - jones948 6 years ago
