I don't know about the others, but bookRevision looks like the number that is changed each time a book is revised. it is called "Unique-ID" in the MobileRead wiki documentation of the MOBI header.

The acr field corresponds to the "asset_id" contained in KFX book metadata. It is basically a unique file name assigned to the main file of the book in the KFX format.

One way to obtain this is to use the KFX Input calibre plugin in CLI mode. The console output from that will contain a string in the form "asset_id=CR!9PSZZDRCQX6DQDZPFDT3G8FMCE39," giving you the value.
