I was once told that the "51" was the recommended mix ratio: 5 parts water to 1 part Pastis (not a bad idea, in my experience).They also do a version known as 51 but, for some reason, this always seemed too powerful.
Actually, it commemorates the date (1951) when France lifted the ban on anise-based aperitifs!
