New Q2 Frame count based on imaging numbering

I recently purchased a new Q2, but noticed the imaging numbering started listed as L1000206 as I exported to Lightroom.  Is there any relationship between imaging number count and age/use of the camera?  Almost all my other non Leica cameras started near Zero.   Is this any concern?  Has this been a previously used camera sold as new?   Note the number 206 would be the approximate frames I shot.   Thanks.

This reflects the number of test shots on the SD card that Leica QC used.  It tells you nothing about the number of shots of the camera.

This worked when I had Fujifilm cameras, haven’t tried it with Leica though …

Keep in mind, that after any software update the number count is reset to L1000001.
