There is no particular meaning to the number other than it is a way to find an entry on a census page. Many page transcriptions over the years have dwelling number on them but do not list the orginal census image page#, thus dwelling # has become a sort of defacto pointing index. Thats all.
FWIW
I scoured the annual circular of the 62nd regiment and did not find a listing for George in those published in the first 7-8 years.
