This is what I get using a spreadsheet :

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.
