Just an "interesting" bit of trivia, the Japanese produced their rifles in blocks of 10,000; but they started at "0" and went to "9999", then added a character in a circle to the beginning to mark the next block- similar to the letter suffix. Yes, "0" number rifles are known.
I have no doubt that the Germans also produced 10k pistol blocks, starting from #1 and to 10,000.
Quite logical.
