In fact the TH2 version 1511 was the first build to break a rule in build numbering of stable releases since Vista: until last November's update, all stable RTMs have been divisible with 16, on purpose:
OS Name Version Build Windows Vista RTM 6.0 6000 Windows 7 RTM 6.1 7600 Windows 8 RTM 6.2 9200 Windows 8.1 6.3 9200 Windows 8.1 Update 1 6.3 9600 Windows 10 RTM 10 10240
Build number of TH2 version 1511 (build 10586) was surprisingly not divisible with 16, but I wouldn't be surprised if they went back to that now with Anniversary Update. You know, 14400 is divisible with 16 :)
Or, why not 14416?
A quote from Windows Confidential: Numerology of the build | TechNet Magazine:
Continuing the tradition of the cute final build number, developers gave Windows Vista build number 6,000 and Windows 7 build number 7,600. Windows 8 was going to be build number 8,888. In fact, the team (of which I was a member) actually produced a build with that number, but we discovered a problem. The number 8,888 is not evenly divisible by 16.

Well...
... the Build number is new...
... that's about it!
No bugs here.
Anyone notice the Startup sound plays when the Lock Screen loads, and not when you land on the Desktop?
Here's a first. Build 14393 is released to the Fast Ring and it is the highest build number on buildfeed.net (NT Builds). I would think that if nobody comes up with a showstopper than 14393 will be the the RTM build. After installing 14390 I'm back to getting stuck at 25% of install completed and it bombs. I'm going back to a previous image of 14390 before 14393 made an appearance.
Build 14393 downloaded and installed as an update in 23 minutes. ISO Created and all install files cleaned. System Restore turned off again and has been re-implemented. This build seems solid and I have not yet even rebooted.
