1977 cb750k Are the engine serial# and frame number supposed to match on these bikes? Mine do not does that mean the motor was swapped?

when they first started assembling these bikes the engines came from another plant,,the truck was late so they decided to start using a few engines they already had and that threw the matching out,,that driver committed suicide as is to be expected for such a stuff up.
