Are they in some other list ?

I would say yes:
kern.maxvnodes: 31000
kern.minvnodes: 2000
vfs.freevnodes: 21
vfs.wantfreevnodes: 2000
vfs.numvnodes: 31011
debug.vnlru_nowhere: 261
ITEM SIZE LIMIT USED FREE REQUESTS FAILURES
VNODE: 480, 0, 30999, 777, 248903, 0
VNODEPOLL: 112, 0, 80, 85, 80, 0
But still:
0xffffff0003939be0 /dev/ad0s2a on / (ufs)
mnt_nvnodelistsize = 570
0xffffff000393a000 devfs on /dev (devfs)
mnt_nvnodelistsize = 41
0xffffff0003939000 /dev/ad0s2d on /opt/sid/build (ufs)
mnt_nvnodelistsize = 52
There is 30000 vnodes somewhere.

Done both before this test, still "hangs/leaks":
vfs.cache.numfullpathfound: 29075
vfs.cache.numfullpathfail4: 0
vfs.cache.numfullpathfail2: 0
vfs.cache.numfullpathfail1: 0
vfs.cache.numfullpathcalls: 29075
debug.disablefullpath: 1
