Yes, DocBook orderedlist (*not* its child element, listitem) has an 
equivalent startingnumber attribute.

Note that this attribute is not supported by DocBook v4. It has been 
added to DocBook v5+.

See https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/5.1/orderedlist.html
See https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/5.0/orderedlist.html
See https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/4.5/orderedlist.html
