Yeah, it did sound strange to mention another 172-page book or whatever. I think the numbers are to impress the members.
Remember that the main purpose of these conventions back in the day was to boost sales of these items. -

No clue, other than that the WTBTS has ALWAYS been fascinated by totally pointless numbers... (1874, 1914, 1918, 1925, 1940, 1975, 607 B.C, etc...)
