For the later year Packards it seems that they prefixed standard hardware part numbers with "G". I was going through the data on these and here are some highlights:

G161348 (a #4-24 X 1/2 self tapping screw) has the longest models list for one specific application. Used on the "ELECTRICAL-DOME LIGHT - DOME LIGHT ASSEMBLY" on "2276-77-80-86; 2362-65-72-82-85-92-95; 2452-62-65-72-92-95-98; 2552-62-65-72-92-95; 2650-51-52-62-65-72-92-95-97; 5450-51-52-62-65-72-92-95-97".

The largest group number so far is 30.82494313, the "HYDRAULIC SYSTEM - PLATE-PUMP BOTTOM" on the 48-54 cars. A sub-part of the 30.82494 pump.

The longest application name is G110347: "STEERING-POWER STEERING CONTROL VALVE - LUBRICATOR FITTING-CONTROL VALVE TO PITMAN ARM BALL STUD". The shortest is a 4 way tie of 4 letter words: "bulb, prop, door, stud".

The longest complete names are "G115704 RADIATOR GRILLE AND SPLASHER - MOULDING-RADIATOR FRONT FENDER FRONT SCREW 5/16-18 X 1, CENTER AND LOWER MOULDINGS TO REINFORCEMENT 2262-65-70-71-72-75-76-77-79-80-82-86-92-93-95; 2362-65-92-95" and "G145417 DOORS-FRONT DOOR WINDOW - MOULDING ASSY-WINDOW FINISHING SCREW #8 X 5/8 2452-62-65-72-92-95-98; 2552-62-65-72-92-95; 2613-33-50-51-52-62-65-72-92-95-97; 5413-33-50-51-52-62-65-72-82-85-92-95-97".

IDK, it's just curious what you find digging into stuff sometimes.
