In the US, most RF switch boxes supported 3/4 or 2/3. I think some other countries used 36, which usually had no actual broadcasters (it overlaps eith a signal radio-astronomy uses)
That’s probably a preset number not the UHF channel.
In the UK (dunno if this is actually a UK photo - although the mug of tea might suggest it is) we had four channels until 1997, so preset 5 was commonly used to tune in to whatever else was connected.
Why is the TV set to channel 5?

As someone pointed out, this turned out to be a rendering.
