wow, I have never notice that. Good job on finding it
Maybe it is like 4869 being Sherlock. 4368 can be translated into something else in Japanese (see episode 400).
Either that or it is a typo made by the producers. someone can mess up an 8 bad enough to look like a 3 and a 9 look like an 8.
Like with numbers on an electronic scoreboard.

glanced at the manga for those chapters and I didnt see a frame showing the license plate anywhere so it might be the anime trying to put a little more detail into it and failing to get it right the first time. (if I missed the frame sue me) :p

I was right after all. I knew I've seen 48-69 before. It did change to 43-68. I thought the hiragana "A" in front of 48-69 was a pun for the "A" of APTX 4869
. But look at it as a whole, everything changed.

One question though..
Do you all really think that the BO Members will put some serious efforts to get their vehicles registered.As you all think that these are their real License Plate Numbers..
I don't think that this is a silly typo error..Comeon!..U have to seriously put on some efforts to draw(P.S they are not typing it,they are drawing it..so its not a typo error that's for sure)
I personally feel that Gosho-sama is scattering these kinds of hint in every major cases,that will come forward in the begining of the end arcs..
Gosho-sama is not that fool enough to let this silly mistake to pass just right under his nose..He is a mystery mangaka,and he is into this field right from the time when most of us were not even able to understand what does DC is..
So whatever the case is ,its not a mistake ,it has some hidden connections with future arcs, that's what i think..
and Gin has all right to change the license number of his car as that hardly matters to him or the Licensing Dept. ..maybe he was on different mood that day. Who knows hehe

I don't think Aoyama-sensei has ever shown the license plate of Gin's car ever, so the anime company is compensating for that by changing the number in every episode that shows it. DX
Just my theory.

Since Gin is a bit paranoid, perphas he changes the plates from time to time, making it harder to recognise/get him?

I also think that Gosho never shows the number because it could be the same number of a real car...
for the same cause he made this strange mail adress for "the boss"
In the anime they just thought it would look bad if theres no number so they are changing it^^
Or they want to show that gin changes it...
