The following number on mine is 8. I have not seen anything stating that a number following the month and year ID letters is a sequential manufacture number. The usual references say that the number is a customer repair stamp, but I don't understand exactly what that means. I have seen two-letter date stamps with no following number, and also followed with one and two digit numbers. For a well-selling model, if it is a monthly sequential manufacture number it could easily go into three or even four digits, and I have never seen anything like that.
