I presume to assume that the numbering is haphazzard, at best, and is designed to make no sense to anyone that is classified as TPTB, which the numbering makes perfect sense in that the registry numbers are pulled, somewhat painfully (at a minimum I'd hope), out of the ass.....

They are roughly chronological, though. I mean, we can say that much, since one of the uses to which they are put, storytelling-wise, is to give relative dates for ships. Thus a ship we are meant to think of as fancy and new gets a certain sort of number, relative to the rest.

Well, we could point out counterexamples all day, if we're so inclined, yet the fact remains that, in general, if a ship is meant to be "new" it gets one kind of number, if "old" another kind.
