Kernel numbers

What does it mean to see an rpm with a kernel of 2.6.10-1.741_FC3, when 
we go to a site like http://www.kernel.org and see the latest kernel is 
at 2.6.10?  If one wanted to compile their own kernel from this site, 
would they be losing fixes/etc. from the "-1.741_FC3" portion?

Thanks, still learning here...
