There's an open transaction somewhere that VACUUM is preserving the
tuples for. This transaction need not ever have touched the table,
or ever intend to touch the table --- but VACUUM cannot know that,
so it saves any tuples that the transaction might be entitled to see
if it looked.

You keep on showing us only subsets of pg_stat_activity :-(
Also, if you don't see anything in pg_stat_activity, try pg_prepared_xacts.
