I believe that if you look closely at the output of the tar command you'll see that each of those files is added to the the archive as part of the processing the containing directory, and then a hard-link entry is added when the the list.txt line containing the explict filename is processed. If that's indeed the problem, then using the "--no-recursion" option should avoid the issue.
Thank you, that worked. Tar by default executes recursively, so depending on how it's been set up the list.txt to be used with -T option, the --no-recursion option may be used or not. In this case that includes every single file and folder, is mandatory.
