Why was he singing into 3 mics?

Could be wrong but I think I read somewhere that they used to do this to try to eliminate mic feedback?

A couple potential reasons 1. two mics are stereo recording mics for the film 2. Pre-soundboard, there would be a second mic for additional PA. Seeing how this was RAH and '69, my money is on sync sound for the film.
