:
SD/ND 1804 and SD/ND 1806 in the Dakotas which follow the Missouri River, so numbered for the years Lewis and Clark passed through the area.
NM 2001 in Alamogordo, which goes to the International Space Hall of Fame.
NM 6563 in Sunspot, which according to Steve Riner's site is numbered for the wavelength, 6563 Angstroms, of the Balmer hydrogen transition of sunlight (whatever that is). [sic] The road serves an observatory.
