Because there were over 100,000 HG's made and very roughly 1/4 of these were constructed in the Adelaide plant. Yours is ostensibly the 7093rd HG built in Adelaide.

They were just numbered in the order that they came down the line, so there is no sequence as such.

The lowest chassis numbers from each plant in the HG are usually in the first 20 chassis numbers.
Adelaide and Sydney also numbered theie cars, so check your body plate to see which Monaro/GTS or GTS350 that you have.
