I think the number is actually the days since 30/12/1999 when work started on the release.
This is what I get using a spreadsheet :
14/05/15 5613
09/10/15 5761
30/12/99 0
The date in column 1 is calculated by displaying the number in column 2 in date format. Day Zero is thus 30/12/1999.
My assumption is that the release number is generated when work on the release starts.
Sorry if someone else has already come up with this explanation.
