这几个包的区别：
Installing Maven
----------------
1) Unpack the archive where you would like to store the binaries, eg: Unix-based operating systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X)
tar zxvf apache-maven-3.x.y.tar.gz Windows
unzip apache-maven-3.x.y.zip 2) A directory called "apache-maven-3.x.y" will be created.
3) Add the bin directory to your PATH, eg: Unix-based operating systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X)
export PATH=/usr/local/apache-maven-3.x.y/bin:$PATH Windows
set PATH="c:\program files\apache-maven-3.x.y\bin";%PATH% 4) Make sure JAVA_HOME is set to the location of your JDK 5) Run "mvn --version" to verify that it is correctly installed.

所以区别显而易见：
.tar.gz用于linux
.zip 用于windows
另外src.zip 是源码
.zip 是安装包

If you still want to use an old version you can find more information in the Maven Releases History and can download files from the archives for versions 3.0.4+ and legacy archives for earlier releases.
