This occurs because the list is broken up into an alphanumeric prefix, 'ABC', and an integer suffix, 01 to 05. However, the integers 01, 02, 03, 04, and 05 are represented as 1,2,3,4 and 5. This is explained in the User Manual under List Concepts in Section 2.1.2.2 of Volume 1. An example such as the one above is given under Possible Errors in Section 2.1.2.2.
