Just to clarify the flights:
UA84 EWR-TLV 16:45-10:15(+1)
UA90 EWR-TLV 22:50-16:20(+1)
UA85 TLV-EWR 12:15-17:15
UA91 TLV-EWR 23:10-04:10(+1)
U85, which you mention, departs TLV, not EWR.

4, 2x on UA and 2x on LY (though technically LY isn't daily since they don't fly on Shabbat).
Considering this is on top of 3x daily on LY from JFK and 1x daily on DL from JFK, not sure why this is surprising. Never been on DL's JFK-TLV, but have been on both LY flights, both UA flights, and all LY JFK flights (sometimes as much as 5x daily) and they are generally full.
