Google Analytics display confusing data in segments

I created a Fleet Page Segment on GA to get only tracking activities for /fleet and /fleet/

enter image description here

On Pageviews I see 81 views but there are only 23 views on /fleet/ and 9 views on /fleet

enter image description here

My question is why GA calculated other url views when I set on the Fleet Page segment to filter only /fleet and /fleet/

The segment is isolating the sessions that have seen both the /fleet and /fleet/ pages (if you wanted to isolate the sessions that have seen either one or the other you should use OR instead of AND).

That said, the behavior you see in the report is because it shows viewing all the pages viewed by the sessions that visited the pages defined in your segment. So you are not filtering to see only those two pages, but you are seeing all the pages viewed by sessions who respect the condition of your segment.
