It is manual so better read it through out

Dmesg below

wsdisplay0: screen 1 added (80x25, vt100 emulation)
wsdisplay0: screen 2 added (80x25, vt100 emulation)
wsdisplay0: screen 3 added (80x25, vt100 emulation)
wsdisplay0: screen 4 added (80x25, vt100 emulation)

I find 4 screens are added.

So went and checked the Xorg.log
Found section [   391.035] to have been suspect.
