the table is passed several times to get the size maxima, etc.
your number is also incremented in every pass (how many passes?). ;)
use something like this to take care of trial typesetting:
\definenumber[MyNum]
\def\IncrTABLEnum[#1]%
{\iftrialtypesetting
\hbox{00}% allocate some space in the first pass
\else
\getnumber[#1]\incrementnumber[#1]%
\fi}
\starttext
\resetnumber[MyNum] % reset point #1
\bTABLE
% \bTR\bTD \resetnumber[MyNum] \eTD\eTR % reset point #2
\bTR\bTD \IncrTABLEnum[MyNum] \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD \IncrTABLEnum[MyNum] \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD \IncrTABLEnum[MyNum] \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD \IncrTABLEnum[MyNum] \eTD\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext
