I think that all 63,000 have already been processed and have the certificate of authenticity with that number in them, and that people just get those at random. The one I own is a really low number, like 158 or something, while others that have been bought or reviewed within the same time period as me were 30,000-something. There's no order in which the sets are sold, and certain merchants (Amazon for instance) has an allotted amount they can sell, but you don't know the number of authenticity until you open the set.
