When you build a kernel, a new vers.c file is created by running

/usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh.
That script is also responsible for creating a "version" file that

increments every time you build a kernel in the same directory.
You too could have high build number if you were never to delete

the kernel build directory (by default instruction

/usr/src/sys/arch/$(machine)/compile/GENERIC) or being carefull about

keeping the "version" file.
