I still randomly see myssid 4 (or some other random number) on Windows 11 with no explanation.
There was an old bug up through at least XP (maybe gone by SP3, but I don't remember) where there would be certain SSIDs or network names that incremented because of how networking was implemented. I'm doubtful it's the same thing, but you could try searching there for a start.
