Are you certain of this? I would speculate it should say 9999J9 or something else with 5 digits. Or do you have information that they never got to the fifth digit in the last group?

I agree that the 1970-72 (another typo, since this scheme was first used in 1970, not 1971) serials would have no more than 5 digits plus the J. That is what distinguishes them from the numbers used in 1982-83, which have six digits.
