51 stands for the model of the Plane. The P stands for the series of planes example: P-40
P-47
P-38
P-51
The number i dentifies the specific plane. Planes are also updated or improved, so they put in letters example: P-51 B, P-51 D, P-51 H, ect.
I believe the P in P-51 stand for "Pursuit" such as B in B-25 stands for Bomber.
