I don't think there's any way of knowing how many were made.

when I looked on the quality control sticker under the pick guard on mine I found it gave a date on which it was assembled.
This was after the date I ordered it from a shop in the UK, which made me wonder if they did an initial batch and then just made them to order.
(I had to wait 3 months between ordering it and delivery).  It would be interesting to find out how many were made but I don't know if Fender would release that info.

They all have dates stamped on bothe the neck heel and neck pocket. Mine are July 2003 from memory.

Wouldn’t recommend taking them apart to check, the finish is easy to chip.
