I don't use IQFeed, but chances are that CME represents the 'regular trading hours', whereas CME_GBX represents 'regular trading hours plus overnight trading'.

Initially globex was only used overnight/when pits were closed but over time that changed. Many of the data providers still maintain the same names as when they set them up the data series, even though their definitions have changed.
