Less than 608 is not possible for the LP-series. If you mean 508, that belongs to the so called "Düsseldorfer"-Van series. From L 408 up to L 613. May be a mistake in your source? What's on with Berger, Frankfurt as the coachbuilder?

The source is a Daimler-Benz-Magazine, but you are absolutely right in my mind: The magazine states "606". Must be a typing mistake, as on the "Daimler Press Homepage" I found the same car correctly named "608". Berger sounds very good. One more point for "sichel"! Congratulation
