During the entire era of the Krag, the only digit that needed to be changed was the 4th.  Perhaps just the nature of that position was related to any number of potential flaws, flukes or failures that could occur.  Maybe it should be a surprise that there aren't even more to be found out of, what, over four hundred thousand pieces produced.  Probably there are even more to be found.
