They are init runlevels.  The runlevels are defined in /etc/inittab.  The
comment at the top describes them:

# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
#   0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#   1 - Single user mode
#   2 - Multiuser, without NFS
#   3 - Full multiuser mode
#   4 - unused
#   5 - X11
#   6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)

The /etc/rc.d/rc3.d directory symlinks to the services in /etc/rc.d/init.d
started and stopped in runlevel 3.  The chkconfig program manages the symlinks
to control what programs are started in each runlevel.  Usually, 2,3,4,5 are
managed together; 3 and 5 are the same except X is started in 5 (not by
/etc/rc.d mechanism).
