Even more weird: Version 3 was released in 2011. In the same timespan we went from 2 -> 3 we went from 3 -> 6!
2011 is actually the same year Firefox started their rapid versioning to try and match Chrome. There was definitely a shift in versioning styles around then.
I still have my Firefox 3.0 Download Day PDF certificate.
