Hi, Jesse-- For the subfields that I use in the 952 field, the order doesn't seem to matter. We're on Koha 3.18--I don't know if the subfield order matters for other versions of Koha, or if there's any other variables to consider, though.
It's easy to experiment--put the fields in the order that you like, export to Koha, then go take a look--I've found that our item records look fine no matter what the order in the OCLC record's 952 field.
