Where 5156 fits
Why 5156 is special
It is the IPv6 counterpart, and its existence so soon after deployment shows the same accumulation happening again.

5 × 1,000 + 1 × 100 + 5 × 10 + 6 × 1 = 5,156. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.
