Default VIN Split

I'm replacing the control arms on my 2000 and was considering taking them from 2000 part car and while looking at Blauparts noticed interesting vinn split issue om lower control arms.

1997-1999

A8 Sedan - Quattro w/ 4.2L 8 Cylinder 32 Valve Engine > Up to Vin 005500

My 2000 part car is 0051XX.

I replaced the rotors on said car and there is a VIN split on rotors at 005000

So my rotors are swapable with my 0057XX

Seems my parts car is one of 500 2000's that had 1999 control arms. Who knew?!

Are there any other D2 VIN splits?
