Prestige 16000 series

Prestige only released a handful of records in its 16000 series. And they don't seem to have any unifying characteristics.

16001: Gumbo! (Pony Poindexter, Booker Ervin) [6/27/63]
16002: Trumpet Giants (Fats Navarro a.o.) [same as 8296]
16003: Eastern Moods (Ahmed Abdul-Malik) [6/3/63]
16004: I'm Shooting High (Gildo Mahones) [2/4/63, 8/15/63, 9/3/63]
16005: Look Out! (Johnny Hammond Smith) [not issued; same as 8288]
16006: Soul Street (Jimmy Forrest) [not issued; same as 8293]
16007: Dameronia (Tadd Dameron) [reissue of 7037]
16008: Clifford Brown Memorial (Tadd Dameron a.o.) [reissue of 7055]
16009: Trotting (Zoot Sims) [reissue of 7026]
16010: not issued?
16011: Ezz-thetic (Lee Konitz a.o.) [reissue of 8295]

Anyone know the rationale behind?

I have really many from the 7000 series, and when I was a teenie there very many double albums I think it is 24000 series, but later anyway had them all on 7000 series. Never heard about 16000 series. But I must admit almost all I have is the typical Prestige Rooster of the 50s, Miles, Monk, MJQ, Trane, Rollins, Jackie McLean, Dameron, Brownie....
