AFAICS this is variable org-clock-history-length.

?0 is the integer representing character "0" see (info "(elisp)Basic
Char Syntax").  The above is a possibility to map the numbers 0, 1,...,
9, 10, ... onto the characters '1', '2', ..., 'A', 'B', .... AFAICS.

The letters should come into play when you have more than 9 items in the
clock-history.
