Matrix, The Easter Egg - Biblical Hovercrafts

In any of the Matrix movies, if you see the reactor casing of one of the hovercrafts, it has an inscription written on it. The Nebuchadnezzar's reads "Mark III No. 11 made in the USA year 2069." This is almost certainly a reference to the Biblical passage Mark 3:11 which reads "And whenever those possessed by evil spirits caught sight of him, they would fall down in front of him shrieking, 'You are the Son of God!'" Other examples include The Mjolnir (The Hammer) with the inscription "Mark XIV No. 62 Made in the USA Year 2111", and The Osiris (from The Animatrix: Final Flight of the Osiris) with the inscription "Mark VI No. 16 Made in the USA Year 2079".

Mark 14:62 reads, "Jesus said, 'I AM. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of the sky.'"

Mark 6:16 reads "But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead."

I think, perhaps, since it appears on all of the ships, that maybe it's simply an identifier, not a reference.
