Thats correct, I bought one of those today. The info is....

Lego Duplo polybag
Set # 1759
Age: 1 1/2 - 5
Pieces: 7

i got one of these too.  it looks an awful lot like a promo item that
was available by mail-in with kellogg's cereal box tops about ten years
ago (i'm pretty sure it is the same set).  i wonder if this will be the
only duplo item available during the mcdonald's promotion.

According to the pause database, it was called "Play Pak" in 1998:
  http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?query=1759
  Specially made for BLOCKBUSTER video rental stores in the U.S.
  A limited time offer (Sept. 1998): one free set the rental of
  any children's video. Alternately, 1759 could be purchased
  outright for $0.60 Play Pak™ is a trademark of Mattel, Inc.

The picture from the database looks just like the duplo set from
McDs as well, except for some text rework.

That explains why the McDonalds Duplo has a set number while the
other sets don't seem to.
