I just logged into my iCloud on my computer and went to my Contacts. Instead of having "All Contacts" selected, I chose "Card". That automatically eliminated all the duplicates.
I have duplicase contacts too after upgrading to Big Sur. And I haven't being able to fix it yet. Have you find a fix? Thanks!

I just fixed mine by loggin to iCloud, Settings, Restore Contacts and selected the last backup before installing Big Sur and I got my contacts corrected. Hope this is helpfull.
