I assume it is not a real 1959 model on its original CVs?
Manufacturers use all sorts of numbering systems, sometimes to indicate date of manufacture, at other times to indicate some exact dimension. CVs are allegedly selectively assembled, the number may be put there after measuring the outer to tell them which size of inner, balls and/or cage to fit.
