OK, I see the log files in the service installation command: -out 
%JBOSS_HOME%\bin\stdoutwfc.log -err %JBOSS_HOME%\bin\stderrwfc.log
So these are stdout and stderr outputs, they are not controlled by JBoss AS.

The question now is - what is JBossService.exe? (It's not part of the typical 
JBoss AS release where there is a jbosssvc.exe that is used to run the 
service.) If you look at its properties via Windows Explorer, what information 
is shown on the Details tab? It is JBossService.exe that giverns how the logs 
are written to and apparently it is appending to the logs rather than 
overwritting the logs. The question is whether JBossService.exe has an option 
to not append but to overwrite instead.

Of course one way to reset the files is to stop the service, remove the log 
files, and then start the service.

Another thing you could try is to remove the files from the service 
installation command line and reinstall the service. (Or many services put 
their options in the registry, you could loacte the options in the registry and 
remove them.)

Notice that those are the same options I provided in my first response...
