It is likely that a site somewhere linked to you using and Google then followed relative links through your site which ended up as HTTPS. You've take some good steps already by putting the correct URLs in your XML sitemap. I would also suggest to:


Turn off SSL if possible.
Link to your pages using the full URL, i.e. example.com/page.html instead of /page.html. If it's too much effort to do the whole site, at least do the menu so it shows up on every page.
Use canonical URLs, at least on your most popular pages.
Find out who is linking to you and check they are not using HTTPS. Contact them and ask to be linked in the correct way.
