Get Info, I see _spotlight under the Names in Permissions

When I do a Get Info on a file or folder, under the Permissions and Sharing section, one of the Names is _spotlight. Is that normal? It wasn't there a few days ago.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I stumbled upon the reason / solution for this. By clearing the ACLs on all the affected folders, _spotlight no longer appears under the Get Info Names.
