IIRC, the "3"'s in the second column indicate the number of files
associated with this inode. Indeed, `man ls` tells me:
-l, --format=long, --format=verbose
In addition to the name of each file, print the
file type, permissions, number of hard links, owner
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
name, group name, size in bytes, and timestamp (the
modification time unless other times are selected).
For files with a time that is more than 6 months
old or more than 1 hour into the future, the times
tamp contains the year instead of the time of day.
