So essentially you have 6 IP's who have created 30 names with hundreds of ending hashes, generating over 10,000 hits for one file name. You have another unknown set of IP's with same names not sharing any files and attempting to upload. Odd and I don't know what to make of it.
This may be loosely related : http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/36391.html Perhaps what you are seeing is the result of something similar, although I am insufficiently familiar with file sharing protocols to be any where near certain.
