Windows Server 2008 build 6003 refers to a range of post-release Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 operating system updates which were first introduced as part of the KB4493471 update, starting with build 6.0.6003.20489 (vistasp2_ldr_escrow.190320-1700).

As minor revision numbers for Limited Distribution Release (LDR) updates are limited to a certain range of decimal values,[a] the company incremented the major build number by one and reset the revision to 20480 to prevent a decimal overflow, which would have possibly resulted in breakage towards internal Windows servicing mechanisms and within third-party applications. The build number change allows the operating system to be serviced for the remainder of its lifecycle whilst keeping the overall version number unique.[1]
