HBA showing high number

I finished building an ESX 3.5 server and the HBA's are showing vmhba32 and vmhba33. Normally the HBA's show up as vmhba1 and vmhba2 on my other servers which are all exactly alike. Their are only 2 Qlogic cards in each server.

should I be concerned about the HBA numbers being so high?
