That's missing a digit or three.
Up through somewhere in the 73 model year, the transmissions were labeled with "HAO ### ###". The rest of the 73 model year, and later, were labeled "HA ## ## #".
The early ones were "series numbers", in that they went from 1 through whatever, with each transmission assigned a unique one.
The later ones were date codes. I think the first two ## were the day of the month, the next two ## were the number of the month in the year, and the last one was the last digit of the year the transmission was built. (So many late-73 transmissions would end in "2", though the very late ones would end in "3".)
You can find a table with the transmission numbers here:
