That's because there are so many State freeways mixed with Interstate Freeways.
It would be awkward to say "Take the California 101 to Interstate 110 S to Interstate 105 West to Interstate 405 S to Redondo Boulevard".
It's much easier to say "Take the 101 to the 110 to the 105 to the 405 and get off on Redondo".
