Thank you all, but irrespective of count i have why is it keeping old files?
Because you're telling it to!!
max_wal_size= 1GB
wal_keep_segments=500
and how is it using those files? Is there any processes that can flush or remove those files?

They are in a subdir (under /opt/pgdata), and the OP seems likely to

to account for 6 extra, just 5.
