I was surprised and did an ls -l on the files and guess what I found:

So end result is that, Im not able to delete the files or change perms
or ownership even as root.
Most probably, your filesystem is broken and needs a fsck.
No, this is perfectly normal behaviour, for when a directory
has READ permissions but not EXECUTE permissions.
Eg.
mkdir a
touch a/b
chmod 644 a
ls -l a
Try it!
