That isn't true, there are no packages containing /usr/lib64:
$ apt-file search /usr/lib64 ; echo ⭲ $?
⭲ 1
I assume you are getting confused by the usrmerge hack, which breaks a bunch of different things, including `dpkg -S` and is considered broken and unsupported by the dpkg maintainer.
$ ls -ld /lib64
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 5 23:41 /lib64
$ sudo chronic apt -qqy install usrmerge
$ ls -ld /lib64
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 31 03:43 /lib64 -> usr/lib64
