Due to how old dodian is, whenever the server lags these things occur. It is due to how packet handling is not the greatest.
If you do not what packets are, it is all from you picking up a item, to a global item show up on the screen.
In your case these items was visually duped on your screen and if you had attempted to pick them up the server would not believe these were real.

Whenever these occur, we need to restart the server. I try to restart server once a month, sometimes we have to do it once every other week depends on issues that have occur.
If you are wondering, yes these issues to fix either take time or hard to reproduce. Which makes it hard to go in and just fix them.

As how random number generator (rng) works it is all based on luck. If you go 1k kills on a item that is 1:140 then you are quite unlucky and there is nothing more to it.
