IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 5606285 this registry holds 23 other vessels, whose median build year is 1925 and which range from 1906 to 1928. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1925.

Its IMO number, 5606285, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 5×7 + 6×6 + 0×5 + 6×4 + 2×3 + 8×2 = 117 — and the last digit of that total, 7, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does not, so this number as recorded does not validate; it is shown here as held rather than silently corrected.
