The 150mm was definitely labeled no.1. And the no. 3 matched the logical progression (the third one matching yours). The number sequence would match the usual European progression of lens numbering.
But the lengths/numbers you quote does seem to suggest the reverse was the case (or became the case at some stage) in which case yours would become No.3 again! But did the 635mm become no. 0 - or perhaps abandoned because of insurance claims! Very very strange! I dare not quote more from VM!
