One possible number is the Bf 109 G-6 of Uffz. Erich Erbe, 8./JG 53, W.Nr. 161707, black 4. He died when he was shot down near Orvieto, on 6 April 1944 however.
Don't think the 4th number is a '7' as what can be seen is curved while the 6th number, the '7', is not curved. A '3' or '9' comes to mind so, 1613?7 or 1619?7

Dennis, it does look like magic marker but could have been apples much later to ID the piece.
