It should have been 01, but they didn't get the new system running in time.
Y ran from March 2001 to end August 2001.
51 Started Sept 2001.

00 and 50 are reserved for future use (possibly when Q runs out)

Start of September 2000 to end Feb 2001 = X

Start of March 2001 to End of August 2001 = Y

Start of Sept 2001 to End of Feb 2002 = 51
