Default Steering Wheel Clock

When the cars came off the assembly line which way were the steering wheels set up...

Were the spokes clocked 3/6/9 or 9/12/3 ??

I seen a picture somewhere and it seems they were the later..

Doesn't it seem odd that they would put one of the wheel spokes right in the line of sight for the dash? Pretty sure they have always been 3/6/9.
