Here's a thread on oddities -- sets which "break the rules":

Not always, unfortunately. Some notable counter-examples are:
8205 Bungee Chopper
Has two instructions booklets labeled "8205-1" and "8205-2"; each of
these has a separate unique 7-digit LEGO part number.
1974 Bonus Pack
3-set value pack with regular outer packaging (box) and 3 sub-sets
packaged separately in holey plastic bags, and all with unique and
official names, but all numbered "1974".
6426 Super Cycle Center
5-set not-value-pack with regular outer packaging (box) and 5 sub-set
polybags each numbered "6426" on their respective instructions, but
1/5, 2/5, etc. on the polybags, e.g. "4115495-2/5" and "4115474 2/5".
7171 Mos Espa Podrace™
3-set not-value-pack with regular outer packaging (box) and 3 sub-set
boxes each numbered "7171" on their respective boxes, but sharing a
single building instruction booklet.
