In Porsche 911: History of the Legendary Sports Car, Leffingwell says VW used a computer to search the parts numbers and that was the beginning of the only sequence available.

Did not Porsche originally want to call their new, 1963, 6-cylinder cars 901 models? But then were sued by Peugeot who already had a "901" model in mind. Thus the change to 911?
