I think it's far more likely that they're doing it to reflect the fact that their products are essentially updated in synchronized waves, and you have to update all at once to get the best out of it (i.e. across macOS/iOS/watchOS/tvOS, if you own all those devices). This way each wave gets an obvious number so you know what matches what.
