I assume this is the explanation? https://www.sicpers.info/2013/03/how-to-version-a-mach-o-library/
Using git revision as the minor version?

Git commit 7d02895fd0ef22fb93c4f2a5fc3fe5dfc7aba4cb by Jeremy W. Murphy.

Pushed by igorkushnir into branch 'release/22.04'.

On Apple, use project version format compatible with Apple linker
FIXED-IN: 5.8.220402

Using PROJECT here makes sure that it is never out of sync with the ecm
setup in kdevplatform. However, I'm pretty sure that the 'micro' (fourth)
version level is ignored.
