There are about 55 packages in all.

It says: "Your keyword was too generic.
Please consider using a longer keyword or more keywords."
So changing your search to   linux-image-5.10.0   gives 51 matches,
and   linux-image-5.10.0 amd64   cuts it down to 18.

to download a .udeb file, not a .deb package.

You can't install them, which is why there are no results given by:
