Some parts have two (or more) different numbers, for various reasons.
One common reason is LEGO will sometimes have two different molds for the
same part. One mold for molding opaque parts and another for transparent
molding. Apparently, different types of plastic shrink at different rates.
Anyway, each type of mold gets its own number.
There was some discussion around here about this within the last week. See
