Yes, each time you create a mutable file (regardless of what its
contents are), you get a new URI. If you think about it, it has to be
this way: you might modify one copy, and leave the others alone, and you
want them to have separate URIs so you don't see all of them change
instead of just the one.

What command or button were you using when you did that? If you used a
directory page's "Upload File" button, with the "mutable" checkbox
enabled, then you should have gotten a different URI each time.
