I remember seeing this same question a few months ago, so you might try the archives. I'm pretty sure the answer was that mysql continues incrementing to 4 digits. If you have a dev box, you could create a .999 binlog and put it in your bin-index file -- then start mysql, issue a flush logs command and see what happens.
