I believe it's another of the Adobe-specific extensions, similar to the page-template.xml file. This is the first commercial ePub I've come across that has one (out of about a dozen or so), but a number of others have the <a id=xxx> anchor points in the html that correspond to the print edition (but they're not referenced or used anywhere that I can find). It looks like this is something that InDesign can do when exporting an ePub file (hence the matchup to the print edition numbering scheme).

I haven't even attempted to untangle a Calibre-generated ePub. The few conversions I've made with it have had multiple stylesheets (some completely blank) and repeated styles (with different names) within the stylesheets. I mean, it does the job (and fairly well at that), but it certainly isn't nice and tidy.
