The mark is a script lower case "f" and it is part of the serial number. i.e. the full serial number is 6267f. Don't put too much importance on minor details in the shape of the "f" stamps. Different dies were used throughout Luger production, so you will see slight differences in the script. Photos of the "crossed swords" would be useful. Most likely it is an "X" which is found on Russian capture Lugers, but who knows? GI bring back stories often get embellished over time.
