The most likely reason for 56 ohms is that is the closest approximation, resistance and wattage, I could find in stock at the local, Bellevue WA, electronics surplus store.

@12V w/56 Ohm the LED assuming LED Vf 3V would operate at 180mA which is only -10% the illumination of the rail at 14V at 200mA with thesame R value. Wattage required is 1.8W/2.2W, 12V and 14V respectively.
