Hm... Maybe someone who understand this event story can help us a little with this.

Let me tell you (or explain you) something if you are interested about the lore. :D I don't know if you know a lot about Nasuverse or not, and maybe this is related to the story.

Inside Fate universe it's normally impossilbe for a Magus to summon an Heroic Spirit, they are just too powerful. So the Holy Grail help them to summon the spirit, but there is another trick: they don't summon the whole spirit, just a little part of him. To summon them they use a "vessel", something to anchor them to the world. That "vessel" are the classes. Through the classes the Magus summon a little part of the Spirit related to that class: in example, if we summon Cu Chulainn as a Lancer, we are not summoning the whole and complete Cu Chulainn, just him as the hero capable of fight with the lance, the legend with that weapon.

My theory is... the "Counterfeit Heroic Spirits" are Heroic Spirits in the wrong vessel (a.k.a the wrong class). Just like Hector being summoned inside another class instead of being a Lancer. But, once again, this is just my theory.
