Default Number inside side plate...

In a discussion on another forum, someone mentioned that after 1939, Mauser began putting the first two digits of the serial number +1 inside the side plate on Lugers. I never realized this so I checked mine and sure enough, there was a 15 (my serial number begins with 14). Does anyone know the reasoning behind them doing this?
