Thanks Tommy for checking, and in fact you had it right the first time. In Packard's proprietary type font the digit "1" is represented as a "I". So it's 951188. Thanks for the info.

EDIT: Here it is, again for newcomers. This is their own private type font for advertising and the like. The version on the embossed number differs slightly as the stem of the "I" is broadened our of proportion to the serifs. And the version used to stamp the vehicle number (VN) again differs a bit, the "6" and "9" are a bit different but also varies a bit depending on year.
