Gene symbol definition

Hi there, I have a question about the gene symbol from microarray datasets. what does for example Gm10639///Gm3776///Gsta2///Gsta1 mean for one ID (10587331), is it mean, we are not sure about the name of the gene or is it mean one of these genes are complement with the probe that we design with no certainty?

gene

It means that the probe isn't specific to a single gene.
