    {number}{dot} is a Markdown list. Like this:

    1. one
    2. two

    The original Markdown was poorly documented (including in this regard), but most derivatives specify that the numbers are ignored and it just counts from one. Annoying when you are trying to count from zero.

      Ah this explains it. The full sentence was “2001.” I guess next time I need to make an actual sentence. Thanks! TIL
