How to SET the file number sequence on my Nikon D5000?

I recently (and painstakingly) reorganized all the pictures I've taken with my D5000, which adds up to 684. The problem is my cameras current file sequence is on 117.Is there a way for me to manually set it to 685 so there won't be any repeats in file names? Inb4 'take pictures of junk until you reach 685'; That's bad for the shutter life. =

500 something pics won't hurt your shutter.

No there's not. There's an option in your setup menu for the camera to keep numbering once a card is changed, it's disabled by default. When enabled it will continue numbering until dsc_9999 and then start repeating.

Personally I just store my pics in a folder for each month
