Very easy.

In Calibre, select "Preferences", then "Metadata Plugboards". In the "Add new plugboard" line, fill it in as follows:

Format: Mobi
Device: Any device
Source: {series:|| }{series_index:0>2s|| - }{title}
Destination field: Title

then add a second plugboard which is the same, but has a format of "AZW3".

Now, every time you send a book to your Kindle, the book's title, if it's in a series, will be prefixed by the series name and number.

Eg, "Miss Marple 01 - The Body in the Library"

If the book doesn't have a series name specified in its Calibre metadata, the title won't be affected.
