swlist VRTSvxfs will tell you what version you're using.
I think I know what's going on here. If you run the mount -p command to display the mounted filesystems in fstab format, you will probably see a dev= option for every device. I suspect another admin has simply copied and pasted those mount options into fstab at some point; but I imagine the dev= option is meaningless in there as it would be dynamically set to the device number of the device that is mounted.
In other words, don't put it in /etc/fstab.

mount_apfs
MOUNT_APFS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MOUNT_APFS(8)
NAME
mount_apfs -- mount an APFS volume
SYNOPSIS
mount_apfs [-o options] [-u user] [-g group] special directory
mount_apfs [-o options] -s snapshot pathname directory
DESCRIPTION
The mount_apfs command attaches the APFS volume indicated by the device special to the global file system namespace at the location indicated
by directory. This command is normally executed by diskarbitrationd(8) or mount(8) at boot time.
The special parameter should be the path to an APFS pseudo disk device node, such as /dev/disk0s2s1 (which is a volume inside the container
/dev/disk0s2), which can also be specified as simply disk0s2s1.
The options are as follows:
-o options Options passed to mount(2) are specified with the -o option followed by a comma separated string of options. See the mount(8)
man page for possible options and their meanings.
-u user Set the owner of the files in the file system to user. The default owner is the owner of the directory on which the file
system is being mounted. The user may be a user-name, or a numeric value.
-g group Set the group of the files in the file system to group. The default group is the group of the directory on which the file
system is being mounted. The group may be a group-name, or a numeric value.
-s snapshot The name of the snapshot to mount. In this usage pathname is the mounted root directory of the base volume containing the
snapshot.
DIAGNOSTICS
The mount_apfs utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
SEE ALSO
