It may be useful to think of the numbers as referring to the bar
boundaries, not the contents of the bars.  When you start playing from bar
2, that means a specific moment, which is marked by a line and
possibly a number.

The line marks bar boundary number 2 and the number marks that line as
being number 2.  Neither of them refers to the notes before or after the
line.

That makes some sense.  Thanks.
