The accounts were created due to a bug in the system where the giftcard name endpoint (https://api.minecraftservices.com/minecraft/profile) didn’t have a ratelimit so you were able to spam that endpoint as well as the name change endpoint together to create duped account usernames. (This does not work anymore as they added a ratelimit)
These are all the known dupe accounts created using this method (they have all been reverted as of 3 days ago)
