They just decided to mantain a common versioning scheme.
There was, at least that I am absolutely sure of, MS Word 4 and 5 on the Macintosh

Versioning, it's three pairs of integers. It's not decimal! Decimal numbers only have
one dot and the natural evolution 1.9 is 2.0. In versioning, the natural evolution of
1.9 may be 1.10 (or 2.0, if the developers think it's different enough -- new
features, gui etc..)
