It appears to me that explicitly setting list order number is not 
honoured by the odt export mechanism.  The following works on latex 
(list numbering starts at 7) but not on odt (list numbering starts at 
one though the [@7] is stripped from the output (as expect)):

I am using org version 9.1.9 and libre office version 6.4.7.2

What happens if you manually fix the list numbering *within* your Org
buffer before exporting it?

It works fine here, and ox-odt.el honors the in-buffer numbers.

I think it's fine to expect the buffer to be up to date before it is
exported.

Thanks,
