dpkg-source(1) manual page lists formats:

What happened in between? What were the other formats?

Please explain briefly somewhere, e.g. under section "HISTORY":

        format 1.5
                Was format ... (never used?)
                <description>

        format 2.0
                Was format .... (never used?)
                <description>

This is not an extensive list, those are default choices at the end of the
list of formats to try.

Did you read the full sentences?

All the formats are documented in the section "SOURCE PACKAGE FORMATS".

This format never existed. Where did you see this?

Or you're mixing the format of .changes files with the format of .dsc
files.

This one is documented...
