Incorrect catalog listing? edit

The following entries don't appear to be in the proper order when compared to the 1759 first edition score https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/17140 is there some reason the catalog number doesn't align with the opus number?

  • QV 3:2.1 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 4 in C major
  • QV 3:2.2 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 5 in D major
  • QV 3:2.3 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 6 in E minor
  • QV 3:2.4 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 1 in G major
  • QV 3:2.5 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 2 in A minor
  • QV 3:2.6 – Flute Duet Op. 2 No. 3 in B minor

After quite a bit of search, I could not find any 'authority' for the QV catalog, nor explanation for the sequence transposition on the free internet. I did find 3 recordings and this website https://www.flutetunes.com/composers.php?id=355 which all suggest the catalog sequence 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3 corresponds to opus 2 numbering 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The pdf scores from this link leave out the confusing part of the catalog number (eg QV 3:2; Op. 2, No. 1), no consequence I suppose, good luck!
