Default Zo6 Vin question

Getting ready to leave today to go pick up my first Corvette, a 2001 zo6. When researching the VIN I was looking at the VIN information on corvette action center's website. What it shows is that the last 6 digits is for the cars production number. In 2001 there were only 5,773 units built. The VIN on the car I bought, the last 6 numbers are 109931. If I understand this correctly that would mean my car was #9931, how could this be? Everything seems to match on this car, please help.

Just got in a few minutes ago.. I decided after checking the weather that I would drive the car home. Got up this a.m. and it was pouring rain at the hotel we stayed at. Needless to say that I had to drive it 3 hours in the rain, I felt sick!!!! But 8 total hours later I got her home. Washed immediately and then put in garage. Super car...very pleased
