Probably not.

The build sequence increments up one by one but the operators will typically write just the last two or three digits (saves them some writing).

So yours could be 111440, or 220440 or 333440 and they just wrote "440".

My truck was around the 100,000 built in Flint but was labeled "87".

(see posts 9 - 17, if you haven't already)
