They're just the output of the man page formatter.

They're generated by the Makefile:
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/Makefile.in#L281

Basically it's going to run something like "nroff -mandoc ssh.1 >ssh.0"
(exact command depending on your system, see
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/configure.ac#L51).
