Seeing that those files are all of similar date, I wonder if they are
tables that got orphaned in a crash, ie, the pg_class rows were removed
but the backend crashed before physically unlinking the files.
Anyway, if you've satisfied yourself that there are no pg_class entries
for these files, you could just manually remove the files.
I concur with Adrian's nearby suggestion of checking for rows with
reltablespace matching the tablespace's OID before you do anything
drastic, though.
