@DominikNovák Please show what the filenames are when viewed in the terminal, e.g. by updating the question and adding the output of ls -d for one of the files. Jesse is totally correct in saying that a filename can't contain a / character, not on any Unix system. If you see a / in a filename, then that is the result of decoding some other combination of characters in a particular application, as user4556274 suggests.

If you see a file ending /2, in the Finder browser, it will end in :2, when viewed in Terminal. cf apple.stackexchange.com/questions/173529/…. If you want to rename in the command line, you'll need to use the filename as visible in shell.

Please show partial output of ls -alp for some of these files.

These files are generated from linux server and when I open them in Finder browser I can see them like it. If I delete /2, file is ok. So I guess it can not be directory

it's not possible to have a filename with / in it.

This is not a valid filename. 1516092009.M432844P7000.camel5,S=14022,W=14295 is a directory and 2, is the file.
