I'd use % but I can't easily get the reverse at the moment.

It's a conspiracy
No conflict. Pre 1999 teams got renumbered every year in alphabetical order of their primary sponsor's name. That's why you see GM/Ford teams in the 60's, NASA teams in the 110's, UTC teams in the 170's, etc.

We mostly say two fifty four but two five four is acceptable as well. Two hundred and fifty four never acceptable.
