main.cvd is the main database.  The *.inc folders are for incremental
updates to that main database.  It sounds like something failed during
an incremental update at some point, and it fell back to retrieving the
entire database.  Try this:
backup the contents of /var/lib/clamav
rm -rf /var/lib/clamav/*
/etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam restart
(wait until it's done downloading)
/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon restart

Let me know if this fixes it for you.

Thanks,
