The Law of Highway Name Conservation

The area I'm in has the following highways:
  • 95
  • 295 (Baltimore-Washington Parkway)
  • 395
  • 495 (DC Beltway)
  • 695 (Baltimore Beltway)
  • 795
  • 895

How hard would it be to pick a number that didn't end in 95? Maybe just a little less confusing... I'll admit, I have no idea how highway nomenclature is decided upon, so maybe there's a big formula I'm missing that decrees that all major roads out here must end in 95.
