There is no pattern that will emit 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on. You'll need to be satisfied with 1, 2, 3 ...

Like Bear said, there is no pattern to give you 3rd, 6th like that. But if its absolutely necessary for your project you can use some javascript scripting with logic to change the value after its displayed on the page. You can have it at the end of the page so it fires before the page is loaded.
