con is a MS-DOS command. com1,com2,com3 refer to the computer Ports where you can add devices like Printer,Modem , Keyboard etc . So these are the operating Systems "Keywords " and hence you cannot create new folders with these names.

We cannot create folders with names CON, PRN, AUX, CLOCK$, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9.
Its all In-built commands.
If u still want to create folders in those name try Alt combinations.
