55mm and 58mm were once the normal focal length. Most lens manufactures made 58mms at one time.

I was looking around the Valley antique mall in Richland Center, WI, last 
weekend.  They had an X-700 system on the shelf.  The normal lens included was 
the MC Rokkor-PF 58/1.4.
It was an older Rokkor with the chrome aperture ring.
So I guess Pentax isn't alone with odd lengths.
