If you have a flaky network somewhere between you, and the clients accessing your server, it can cause the RST packets to be dropped due to the packet loss, and leave orphaned entries in your ip_conntrack table. This can also happen if you have a malfunctioning switch or NIC card… not necessarily a routing problem out on the internet somewhere.
