my android phone appears as two linked devices

Any reason why my phone occupied two devices in my list of linked devices? I unlinked one and all seems OK. Just trying to understand why that happened. Never did until this week.

    Operating system update is most likely reason.

    Will keep watch for similar anomalies that might be related to OS updates.
