Hello -
DISCLAIMER - I am not able to try this in FreeBSD, so the limit may
differ.

'man vncserver' gives:
vncserver
[:_number_]
... etc ...
:_number_
The dislay number to use. If omitted, the next
free display number is used.
There is apparently a limit on display numbers - I was able to assign '99'
but not '101' - but the number seems to be greater than '2'. YMMV.
