The old National Semiconductor datasheet for the
DM5441/7441 shows it outputting 0,1,2,3,4,5.

However, I have an old TI SN7441, and some ancient Motorola
ones, and also a few from an unknown manufacturer that all
light up two digits simultaneously as I described.

Apparently, this had not been standardized.
