sl which stands for "Steam locomotive" is an old UNIX prank program
designed to annoy people who don't know how to type and apparently it
worked. Did you want to type ls?


The real question is how sl got installed to begin with. Namely I wanted
to install sl-ls which stands for substantially more useful ls

and typed yum install sl. Unfortunately sl-ls is not ported to Red Hat
like many other neat UNIX programs but sl "Steam locomotive" got
installed.
