There must be a reason for the 3 missing though, or to look at it the other way round, why 1 was chosen to signify vinyl, and 4 tape, while omitting the both 2 and 3 until CDs...

(I checked to see if any of these were on minidisc, but nothing)

I just looked at a couple of Beatles releases, vinyl and CD. It appears that this system was used there too, so is probably something which applies across all EMI product. That being so, it's quite possible -3 was for minidisc or some other format (were they still releasing 8-tracks when the system came in?), even though Fame may not have issued any. These aren't calataogue numbers, by the way, but some sort of internal reference number system.
