I have discovered that debsum maybe does not work as i thought. I ran

debsum -as

And actually i did not see sshd binary in that list. However md5 of the /usr/sbin/sshd file and the numbers given in /var/lib/dpkg/info/openssh-server.md5sums are different.

cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/openssh-server.md5sums 
968ce0ccc85f3dc64375c689fa165359  usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server
ba856dce069acadff587ca95e8e63551  usr/sbin/sshd

63398534a80e75262e56ac821e2bb3f3  usr/share/man/man8/sshd.8.gz

md5sum /usr/sbin/sshd
72a54d63b9f9edbdc0cb0de4715683d0

What is wrong?

Im aware that MD5 has had some collisions but this is more of a high level question about hashing functions. If MD5 hashes any arbitrary string into a 32-digit hex value, then according to the Pigeonhole Principle surely this can not be unique as there are more unique arbitrary strings than there… >>> More
