These are all listed as single state zips in my files, but i guess based on
the anecdotal evidence provided below, it must be listing only the state
where the post office resides for that zip.

I can give you one example because I live in the area where it occurs.  I
live in Muscatine, Iowa which is right on the Mississippi River and whose
zip code is 52761.  There is no town immediately across the river (in
Illinois) from Muscatine, so there is an area of Illinois which is served
by the Muscatine Post Office.  This means that those people have a Iowa
mailing address, but physically reside in Illinois.  (You can imagine the
problems these folks have when trying to explain this to some government
agency and it's bureaucrats!)
