Default Wrong VIN # Transmission From the Factory?

I just picked up a Kansas built 1969 L78 El Camino. It has the original engine. When I checked the trans number I found the VIN was not correct but what is strange is that everything else lined up. The date code P9B20 lines up perfectly with the build date of the car 03A. Also the VIN # stamped on the trans is very close to mine and is also a Kansas VIN #.

Any chance there was a mistake at the plant or a trans got swapped before it left the factory?
