If that doesn't get rid of all of them you could do a search for "
1.mp3", " 2.mp3", and etc. This is what iTunes does if you have a song
with the same name from the same album but maybe different content ,
that you don't really care to have around. It just tacks on those
suffixes. I use a better finder rename also, but you can just drag
those files to the trash. But you could lose stuff that you might
want, who knows...
