Showthread order

This goes for every version not just 3.7 but does the /showthread.php?t=11894 go up one by one or can it skip a number?
Does a new forum with it's first thread start at 1 then 2 and so on?

Thread IDs are shared across the entire system. So 11894 can be in forum A while 11895 is in forum B. It will always increase by 1. If you permanently delete a thread, the thread ID is lost forever and will not be reused by the system.

A new forum will have its first thread ID be whichever is next in line for the entire system.
