Question Weird Differential Tag

I have a 1990 Ford F-250HD with the 460 and ZF5. I know I have full floating axles, and my axle code says "35", which according to other threads states that I have 4:10 gears. When I saw my differential tag, it made no sense to me, it appears to say "V129C" and "10 10 2 0E21". I will leave a picture of it

Don't need to see a pic and there's nothing weird about it. It may not make any sense to you, but no Ford parts guy would say that.

V129-C = Ford/Sterling WDD 10.25" Rear Axle / 4.10-1 / No Limited Slip.

0E21 = Assembled May (E) 21, 1990 (0).

Anything else you'd like to know?
