You're right, I forgot that bit.

It's for inline signing.  Raw format 1 has an extended header that includes
the serial number of the zone from which it was generated.  This lets us
resynchronoize the unsigned and signed versions of an inline-signing zone,
in the event that, for example, you update the original zone file and
restart named.
