I've seen this on many (physical) boxes and I solved by increasing 
shutdown timeout. Sometimes 90s is just too little (especially, but not 
only, if you have VMs running).

E.g. I have rcshutdown_timeout="600" in /etc/rc.conf and 
kern.init_shutdown_timeout=900 in /etc/sysctl.conf.

Probably a process is still running and that's why those filesystems 
cannot be (unforcibly) unmounted.
Logs can help identify which process it is.
Perhaps putting rc_debug="YES" in /etc/rc.conf can be useful.
