It means the number of the puzzle is a milestone (a significant event) and the usual way for crossword setters/editors to make us notice these moments - and there have been many of them, there was another one in a spectator puzzle only the other week - is to make us do some maths! Personally, I'm sick of the sight of them but it's the first thing I think of when I see a significant number above a crossword.
