 This is a limitation of tar, maybe even the format used by tar. It looks
 like to_oct() in gnu/usr.bin/tar/create.c uses a maximum of 6 digits
 (8 - the '\0' and a trailing space (?))
 
   --digs;                       /* Trailing null slot is left alone */
   where[--digs] = ' ';          /* Put in the space, though */
 
   /* Produce the digits -- at least one */
   do
     {
       where[--digs] = '0' + (char) (value & 7); /* one octal digit */
       value >>= 3;
     }
   while (digs > 0 && value != 0);
 
   /* Leading spaces, if necessary */
   while (digs > 0)    where[--digs] = ' ';

 Yes, it can be closed sice we remake all device file after extracting
 bin distribution.  In a radical way, we can exclude all device files
 from bin distribution except dev/MAKEDEV :-)
 
 Original PR submitter say nothing about 'what' is the problem.

This is pure aesthetics, since the device nodes get recreated on an 
install. 
If this is a real genuine showstopper, please inform us.
