Face Tag Problem

The problem is that I don't know when it happened, so have no idea how 
to reproduce it.  I have seen it before, some time ago, and like you 
assumed that it was my mistake some how, but this time it is so clearly 
a copy of the tags on one picture to another 67.

I have only ever used sqlite so migration problems are not relevant.  
The only other graphic package I use is Darktable and I never do 
anything with tags there, all tagging is done in DigiKam

Is there an easy way to remove tags from a  bunch of pics?

Any ideas, suggestions, theories?
