well, there might be a line in your xinitrc that starts a terminal, xfce also remembers open terminals, so each time you log in you get a new terminal + the one from the last session; what keeps on growing.
(also explains why they're all on the same position)
best way (i think) is to check your xinitrc, and remove the terminal there.
if it is not in ~/.xinitrc, then also check ~/.xinitrc & ~/Desktop/Autorun (dir)
