Is this really a VOPO

Perhaps the American VoPo's got this treatment, but the European VoPo's display a different pattern. It is possible that some form of refurbishing was carried out in the 1970s when the first VoPo's made in onto the US market via Interarms.

Of course, the guns that didn't need renumbering are the exception. You can find excellent quality pistols with all original parts (usually sans barrel) still there.

Side plates tend to get renumbered, though.

All in all, describing the VoPo pistol is never an exact science.
