It's possible that this wasn't so in an earlier version of FreeBSD, and the old /etc/group file was "inherited." I checked a more recent system, and discovered that group 68 is "dialer". Oddly, when I did an ls -al, some of the devnodes for serial devices said "uucp dialer" for owner and group, respectively, while others said "uucp 68".
