"The Presence" in the end of Less Than video?

OK, forgive me if I manage to f*** this u, if the images don't load or if this has already been covered elsewhere... (I don't post here often)...
I was messing around with the NTAE Facebook cover in Photoshop and to my eyes there is a clear 'print' of a hand that echoes the presence;

I'm now wondering if the cover variants relate to different aspects of being in or out/ before or after the effects of the broken machine.

Also... the voice at the beginning (and end) of "Dear World," saying "yes, everyone seems to be asleep" is not trent's voice? I mean, it probably is but it's been modded a bit... very robotic sounding. Almost sounds like it was said backwards?

Current theory is that EST TERMINATE EVENT number is the Year Zero date but what is the DEVIATION number referencing? Anyone have any theories? I'm stumped.
edit: I see now that people have posted theories it is a zip code. Could it be referencing a particular NIN album instead? A deviation from what we've come to understand. The spines of the albums have catalog numbers on them. http://i.imgur.com/RmkCBDW.png

So... 'Add Violence' is a follow up (or at least nods towards) 'Year Zero', 'Not The Actual Events' uses reappropriated artwork from 'All That Could Have Been / Still' and scatters hidden 'Reptile' lyrics within the 'She's Gone Away' lyrics. 'Hesitation Marks' was both thematically and visually (with Russell Mills involvement) a reflection on The Downward Spiral. 'The Fragile' has been revisited and reformatted into 'Deviations 1'. Oh, and every other NIN release has been given a vinyl reissue, some with "SECRETS INCLUDED".
I got my propaganda
I got revisionism
I got my violence
In hi-def ultra-realism
One can't help but think that this retrospective might be something much, much more than...
the Broken vinyl description: https://store-uk.nin.com/collections...hi-res-digital
I remember Trent saying something about watching the show Lost when it used to be on. I have to say the machine in this picture reminds me a lot of the machines in the bunkers they found on the island. It could be nothing but inspiration but still interesting.
Some of the descriptions for the Vinyl Re-issues, Broken specifically...
REMASTERED IN 2016 ON 180GRAM VINYL WITH REMASTERED ARTWORK + SECRETS INCLUDED. BROKEN
REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL SOURCES IN 2016 ON 180-GRAM VINYL, WITH LOTS OF DETAILS ATTENDED TO THAT YOU MAY NEVER NOTICE BUT WE CARE ABOUT. THE FRAGILE
REMASTERED 2016 AUDIO ON 180GRAM VINYL, REMASTERED ARTWORK AND MORE. THE SLIP
Hm... "K"?
I am sure that the meter readings for Presence, Apperception and Satisfaction mean something, either apart or together. Maybe a phone number, or latitude and longitude for a location... Hopefully we get more clues that help make sense out of it.
