You are seeing these numbers on FamilySearch, correct?
I asked that question years ago I can't remember the answer now but think it's just a FamilySearch reference number.
I fairly sure aghadowey knew the answer.

It sounds as though what you are describing in Family Search's way of identifying a record. For example, "169,Ballymena" is probably a vital record (birth, death or marriage from civil registration) for an event in Ballymena district which appears on page 169 in the register- there will also be a year and perhaps quarter mentioned.

If you post link(s) to any particular ones you've found we can verify this.
