You're not understanding the purpose of the numbering at all here. The numbering is there so that people know what order the patches being sent together come in. If a patch has been sent before as part of a series that's totally irrelevant to a further submission. If you label the patch as part of a series like this then you're saying that there's a patch 1 that this depends on and is needed for this to be applied.
