Roger Light proposed the following answer:
I presume you're using the Ubuntu packages because that's how they are
made. They make use of a feature of the upstart init daemon to restart
automatically - this should give a more reliable service in case of
crashes.

If you want to disable it I believe you need to run "sudo stop
mosquitto" (where "stop" is a symlink to initctl, the tool used to
interact with upstart), but I can't be completely certain because I
can't access a machine with Ubuntu right at the moment.
