[Avodah] End of sefer notes

In Mikraos Gedolos Hamaor, at the end of each sefer it has a note that
says (using B'midbar as an example), "S'chum pesukim shel sefer b'midbar
1288, ... , uparshiosav 10 ..., v'sidrav 32..., uperakav 36..., minyan
hapesuchos 92, v'hasesumos 66, sach hakol 158 parshios..."

I found it interesting that it lists both sidros (referring presumably to
EY's triennial cycle, since in all the seforim it is approx. 3x the # of
parshios) and perakim.  Isn't this a bit of an anachronism?  Were triennial
sidros and perakim ever used in the same period?

KT,
Michael
