The question is what is the last "File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.md5sum". I would guess this is a text file containing the md5sums for the 4 iso files, to verify the download before you burn a bad image to create a bad cd. I believe you check it with md5sum <name of iso file> and verify the result with the last file. If they agree, burn with confidence.
