From my brief discussions with the Windows guys here on this
basically those last two digits are being used to inform the Windows driver of use-case setup. So here it will set things up for whatever the Window's driver considers to be setup "5".
I think from the Linux side we can safely ignore those last two digits. I expect that all systems of the same make and model would report the same last two digits but that it might change between models if the Windows driver is expected to something differently for that model.
