xampp apache ports changing / scanning

I am running xampp on an external facing server (i know people recommend against this, we've configured it pretty tightly [I think!]). We are using control panel v3.1.0 and it has a column called Port(s). The apache ports shown keep changing, and cycling through the udp ports, as well as listing the standard apache ports:

Port(s)
80, 443

80, 443, 1245

80, 443

80, 443, 1246

80, 443, 1247

What does this mean? Are we getting scanned (I don't control our firewall but they say the ports are locked down to 80 and 443)?

httpd.conf

 #Listen 0.0.0.0:80
 #Listen [::]:80
 Listen 80

httpd-ssl.conf

 #Listen 0.0.0.0:443
 #Listen [::]:443
 Listen 443

It might also be worth noting that this machine is running moodle 2.2

These are the ports that MySQL discuss with Apache. 3306 <-> 1245 etc.

Nothing to worry about.
