[R] repeating values in levels()

Can someone help me understand this results?

> levels(as.factor(miset1$facts_convict))
[1] "1" "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6"

converting to numeric and back doesn't seem to help:

> levels(as.factor(as.numeric(miset1$facts_convict)))
[1] "1" "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6"

It's messing up my ologits.  Any way to correct this?
