The number assigned to the TCP stream has a file(-set) scope and is based on
the conversations identified in the file. Conversations are a generic mechanism
to track exchanges between two identifiable endpoints. This happens on many
protocol layers. Therefore no significance can be drawn from the value other
then a correlation between equal numbered frames.

In this case the DNS exchange also constitutes a conversation.
