I'd say not. The same 4-digit serial number will show up in each block manufactured. People often infer significance with some numbers, but unless a serial number reveals an actual state of scarcity, it's all in one's head. The process is called pareidolia--the perception of patterns in the world around us which are not really there. This is part of how we are hard-wired, part of the biases/filters through which we take in and process our environment.
