Yes that is correct.

The number is calculated as major * 100 + minor. So 2.0 is 200, 3.0 is
300, 4.5 is 405 and 5.0 is 500.

Maybe I am have the wrong impression of what this property is used for.
I thought this property is used to enforce the minimum version of
Windows Installer required to run the MSI.  Is that not correct?

If it is correct, what are the possible values for currently released
versions of Windows Installer?  In most examples I've found the values
are 200 or 300.  Is 450 the correct value for Windows Installer 4.5?  Is
500 the correct value for Windows Installer 5.0?

The Package element populates the MSI's Summary Information Stream.

The InstallerVersion attribute populates the "Page Count Summary
Property"
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370570(VS.85).aspx) (aka, the
Minimum Installer Version) of MSI files.

According to
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372045(VS.85).aspx)
it is of type VT_I4 (aka 32-bit signed integer).
