"Updates" in Mac App Store contains multiple instances of same patch?

I started with a newly opened MacBook Air (mid-2013) with Mountain Lion. I used the Mac App Store to install Mavericks and the few subsequent OS patches. In "Updates", I see multiple instances of the same patch, listed a few times:

MacBook Air SMC Firmware Update v1.9 (3 times)

Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update v4.09 (2 times)

MacBook Air EFI Firmware Update v2.7 (1 time)

iPhoto v9.5 (1 time)

I haven't noticed anything wrong with the system, but it's weird to see a patch "installed" multiple times? Anyone know why this is?

Thanks!

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Yes, seen that little occurrence more than a few times, eventually it will vanish from what I've seen.

If you installed it fine, no worries.

techs are looking into this.

My 10.9.1 Update is listed twice in the Updates panel. I think it happened because the first time I tried to install it, I had a process that prevented the computer from restarting. Even though the update failed, It showed up in the "Updates Installed in the last 30 days" section. When I ran the update again (successfully), it showed up a second time.
