Nope.

The NUMERICPAD bit is set by the keyboard.device in rom, not by the keymap.
The (1000) 1.2 keyboard code was not rolled for the new keyboard on the
500/2000.  Neither was it for the "autoboot only" 1.3 release.  That's
why you've got a SetMap command in your startup sequence: to replace the
rom keymap that doesn't know about the new numeric pad keys.
