Ive just been thinking all what you wrote before even i read your comment. i believe its very possible that microsoft is attempting to gather information regarding which model xbox you have to go with the information that they gather from xbox live and its registration.

Then again they may be using the code to find out where the console was constructed so they can rule out the need for a new cable, but how can they be sure when cables can be changed.
