I think there are differences in how the video and audio are encoded in most of these. There is a Wikipedia article that tries to help people understand the different symbols and abbreviations. There are a lot of different ones in that picture and on RARBG in general.
If i understand right, the ones which start with x (x264,x265) are just the same as the H264, and H265 standards, but just refer to the software used to package it.
H265 is newer than H264, and is able to compress the same video quality more resulting in between 25% to 50% reduced filesize.
