Looks like a linux-5.10 source package was indeed added to Buster in August and as you noted, it's getting security updates too. There's some info on the what and when at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/linux-5.10 but I don't know the why. Maybe this is for Buster's LTS lifecycle and 4.19 is expected to go EOL before Buster does? Just a guess.
