Not at all - numbers are used over and over again both within a particular fleet and by other fleets. For example, currently in the Go-Ahead single deck fleet there is HOV1, MEC1, OS1, SE1, SEN1, SO1, SOC1, SOE1. In the Arriva single deck fleet there is DWL1, EN1, ENL1, ENS1, ENX1, MET1. In the Hackney Community Transport single deck fleet there is BT1, DA1, DCS1, DE1, DP1, DPS1, HDC1, LFO1, OS1. Notice that fleet number OS1 crops up with two different operators and both are Optare Solos - the Go-Ahead being an 8.8m whilst the HCT one is a 9.5m version. All very confusing for us Londoners.
