It's not the only magic number in use. Cf. 08/15.

There doesn't spear to be an English version of this page. Oddly, when I saw your link, my thought was "the machine gun? - nah, can't be..." so I was a bit surprised upon seeing the gun when I go there.

Is "08/15" used to mean a derived or improved version, or something similar?
