Those are used to set up the wallpaper picker. See the name and the corresponding image of the possible wallpapers:
Top 3 are
/usr/share/backgrounds/budgie/coffee_on_bench_by_mikesh_kaos.jpg
/usr/share/backgrounds/budgie/camera_and_spectacles_by_bino_storyteller.jpg
/usr/share/backgrounds/budgie/bike_wheel_by_michal_kulesza.jpg
Each flavor of Ubuntu will have a xml with the name of the distro in it (I use Budgie, you use Gnome). Those are the distro and release specific wallpapers.
The one without the "bionic" holds the default wallpapers for that distro of Ubuntu (so Budgie, Gnome, etc each have their own default wallpapers). Those are at the end of the view:

The XML files you mention contain lists of wallpaper images, and the settings which should be applied by the background chooser, for what fill type, and background shading and colors, to use for that wallpaper.
Unfortunately, it seems most of them do not really use these files properly, and simply leave it at zoom with solid background color of black underneath the image (in case of transparency or unfilled area of the screen).
