Don't!  Look at rc.network again.  If you don't get it, run the code with
set -vx, and see what happens.

The correct entry still is:

defaultrouter="1.2.3.4"

For your convenience, I'm posting the complete snipped again:

    # Configure routing

    if [ "x$defaultrouter" != "xNO" ] ; then
            static_routes="default ${static_routes}"
            route_default="default ${defaultrouter}"
    fi
    
    # Set up any static routes.  This should be done before router
discovery.
    if [ "x${static_routes}" != "x" ]; then
            for i in ${static_routes}; do
                    eval route_args=\$route_${i}
                    route add ${route_args}
            done
    fi
