Nope. Just one HDD. I have a Windows partition, though.
This is happened once before, but only repeated 1 update twice. This time it was multiple updates that were repeated. I don't think there's really any consequences to this, but I was just wondering if it happened to any others.
This usually happen on multiple HDD / partitions Machine.
e.g. HDD 1 have a OSX boot partition, and HDD 2 also have a OSX boot partition. But the user only update HDD 1's software. Then the system will realise there is some outdated applications / OS in the machine (From HDD 2) and ask you update again. No matter how many update the user do, the machine is still update the HDD 1 and cause the repeated update.
However, you are not in this case. So I will say's it's unusual.
May be try repair permission. It may fix the problem. Also, please go to check if the system really did the update properly. (e.g. iTunes is now version 11.2)

Ah. I see. iTunes 11.2 did install completely after the 4th time. I'll try repairing permissions.
