I would like to organise my books on my Kindle in series order, but not display the series number on the Kindle.

In Calibre, I have a column called "Order2" which shows, for any title in a series, what place it is. Due to fill-ins etc, the number can include a decimal, eg Ben Aaronovitch:

The Hanging Tree 6
The Furthest Station 6.5
Lies Sleeping 7
The October Man 7.5

What I want is for them to land in that order on the Kindle, without showing the series number (exactly as hard copies would display on a shelf).

Is there any way of creating a plugboard which uses the data from "Order2" but doesn't display it?
I can't help with the Kindle, but, I'm curious: Why use a separate column? Why not just use the series and series index? You can use decimals there.
