No, definitely not. The 8199 is just the file-number, a number which can be reset through the camera's menu [1] I wasn't sure about Lightroom's ability to display shutter count, but a little googling suggests not. e.g. item 2) here http://photographylife.com/how-to-find-total-shutter-actuations-on-nikon-and-canon-dslrs So I'd go with either of the two previous links as the easiest approach.
