Yes. It is on the Dash VIN and yes it is similar to what you mentioned.

Rob,
You aren't clear, but I suspect you are talking about the dashboard
VIN repeater tag and not the VIN stamp on the body, right?
I have seen several goofs on the repeater tag, including failing to
switch over to the next month, and failing to switch over to the
next year. It wouldn't surprise me if (for example) when Guido the
tag stamper got to 3999, the next tag he stamped was 3000 instead of
4000. Is that the kind of goof you are talking about?
