Those are not directories Jira will create or use itself, so I'd guess one of your admins did an upgrade and created them as a backup.

I'd check that Jira is not set up to use them by looking in the system info page.  Then, if they're not mentioned there, move them somewhere else and see if Jira complains.  If not, then delete them.
