Mozilla is indeed installed. You essentially told bash to:
# rpm -e mozilla-1.4-0.7.3.i386.rpm \
mozilla-mail-1.4-0.7.3.i386.rpm \
mozilla-nspr-1.4-0.7.3.i386.rpm \
mozilla-nss-1.4-0.7.3.i386.rpm \
mozilla-psm-1.4-0.7.3.i386.rpm
and you received the correct result.

You should have done
# rpm -e mozilla mozilla-mail mozilla-nspr mozilla-nss mozilla-psm

Providing you have yum installed, it'd be simpler to
# yum remove mozilla
instead. It will catch all the dependencies, and ask you to confirm.
