The first two was the HP. 125=12 HP. They did this all the way into the QL's. Then, they just went to a series designation that didn't really have any meaning. So, the answer to your question is yes.... and no.
This rule held true except for 2 models. The 71 and 73 were gear drives even though they were odd. To my knowledge nobody knows why IH did this.
