Don't worry about it, while it uses tex-* - and therefore is 
a tex macro/extension or something like that -  I assume you 
can find the answer of teh number here:

	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler_triangle

It's a constant number, similar to the version number of the 
TeX typesetting system (PI = 3.1415...). Teh designer of teX 
decided that with each new bugfix one more digit of teh 
number PI will be added as version number. The development 
itself is closed as far as I know.
