I expect the reason for the different numbers on the hinges of the legs is the
following:
In a LEGO-mold a number of pieces are produced simulataneously (e.g. say 20 2x4
bricks at the same time). Each of these pieces has a different number (so for
the bricks from 1 to 20) to be able to identify which part of the mold the piece
is coming from (in the case of problems with some of the molds).
You can also see it on plates; next to a 4 or 5 digit element number there is
also often a digit that varies from otherwise identical plates.
So I think it is just for LEGO a way to check were defective parts can come
from.
Best regards,
Sybrand
