I am using getBM function with as input the ensembl gene ID and as output the entrez gene ID. Here is a part of the code I am using :

I'm not sure where you are looking, but as an example, for
ENSG00000215417, I see 7 EntrezGene genes on the Ensembl site, just like
you have here:
http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Matches?g=ENSG00000215417;r=13:92000074-92006833
In addition:
> mget(get(ex[1], revmap(org.Hs.egENSEMBL)), org.Hs.egSYMBOL)
$`407975`
[1] "MIR17HG"
$`406952`
[1] "MIR17"
$`406953`
[1] "MIR18A"
$`406979`
[1] "MIR19A"
$`406980`
[1] "MIR19B1"
$`406982`
[1] "MIR20A"
$`407048`
[1] "MIR92A1"
So I don't see anything unexpected here.
Best,
Jim
