Driving on the highway usually does that. It seems like the doors are not flush and the wind and dirt stripping the paint off like it's getting sand blasted.

Its more than likely from rubbing when you take the doors on and off. Mine has a little too.

I was told that chips such as those are caused by not using mud flaps. I have had mud flaps on evert Jeep I have ever owned.
