The thing is, if I drop that index and run that originally posted query I get no results. When I create the index and run the query I get the duplicate entries. Also, if I do not limit that query to input_transaction_snbs and run it against everything, input_transaction_snbs is the only table that shows up with duplicate entries.

I don't think that query proves much at all: indexname is not a unique key for pg_indexes, nor is relname a unique key for pg_stat_user_tables, so most likely you're getting an unrelated hit in one or the other of those views.
Personally I'd rely on the table OID columns (relid) to join the two pg_stat views. If you want to join to pg_indexes it looks like you need to compare all of schemaname, tablename, indexname to be safe.
But really you could skip that join and just use pg_get_indexdef(indexrelid).
