Thanks for answering, Mats.  With the following code the bar number
displaces the notes in each bar to the right.  If I remove the two
self-alignment-X overrides the bar number does not displace any music.

\version "2.12.1"

numberEveryBar = {
 \override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-invisible
 \set Score.barNumberVisibility = #(every-nth-bar-number-visible 1)
 \override Score.BarNumber #'outside-staff-priority = #1
 \override Score.BarNumber #'font-size = #-2
 \override Score.BarNumber #'self-alignment-X = #-1
}
barNumberDown = {
 \override Score.BarNumber #'direction = #DOWN
 \override Score.BarNumber #'outside-staff-priority = #1
 \override Score.BarNumber #'font-size = #-2
 \override Score.BarNumber #'self-alignment-X = #-1
}

\relative c'' {
 \numberEveryBar \barNumberDown
 \repeat unfold 52 c2
 \set Score.currentBarNumber = #100
 \repeat unfold 48 c4
}
