Mosquitto_sub brings a mixture of old and new messages, why?

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Noticed that the following command in ssh shell gives strange results
mosquitto_sub -h 192.168.0.34 -v -t “#”

It starts with a page of really old messages (the very first ones on this system) and then continues with the current ones.
It looks odd, should it be like this?

I installed Hass.io (ver 0.64.3) as described on this website and enabled mqtt broker (mosquitto).
