Two are for the fronts. The other four are for the rears. For some reason Ford decied to make the rear line 2 pieces instead of one. The line has a junction on the rear trailing arm, then continues its way to the caliper. I think there are a couple kits that contain only 4 lines, but these kits do away with the 2 piece rear.

I believe they split the rear lines into two for two reasons: to keep it from bouncing all over the place, and to decrease the amount of flex experienced when braking. One long hose will flex a lot more than two short ones.
