Probably two kernels for different CPU architectures.
Run
rpm -q kernel --qf "kernel-%{version}-%{release} is for %{arch}\n"
to find out.
Caveat: You could uninstall both packages at once with
"rpm --erase --allmatches kernel", BUT since you don't have
a newer or different kernel installed, you would be without a
kernel. My recommendation would be to install a new kernel first,
then remove the two old kernels.
