Default RN numbers

Another Ariel W/NG, again from "The Classic Motorcycle", with number 10872RN. Has anybody ever noticed that the vehicles on the pictures RN008.jpg and RN014.jpg (both posted by Alan Brock), have very close RN numbers? The mobile workshop is 41677RN, the mobile crane is 41675RN. Would this mean that these RN numbers were not allocated in blocks, as in the army? It seems to me that there are many completely different Royal Navy vehicles with very close RN numbers... (OK, the Navy used lessvehicles than the army, but still... Just a thought...)
