I've seen photos with a symbol such as a square or a diamond containing a 3
digit number inside. I was wondering if anyone knew exactly what it means.

Is the symbol for the division? If so, is it true the 2nd used the diamond
and the 5th used the square?

Is the number inside the symbol just a vehicle number or did it mean more?
I've seen numbers like 200, 421, etc.

Thanks!
