VIN # sequence

So this is probably an easy question but I can't seem to find the answer. How does the VIN # sequence work? Are they different for Z51 and non Z51? I have a Z51 2LT and my VIN ends #1110. Would this mean I have the 1,110th car off the line or is it just within the same model and package?
