Let's say we introduced that ".1" disttag some months ago:

20070415
- FC-6:		foo-1.0-1.fc6
- rawhide: 	foo-1.0-1.1
(Note that ".1" is higher than ".fc6" in rpm ENVR comparisons afaics)

20070515 - rebuild in devel
- FC-6:		foo-1.0-1.fc6 (unchanged)
- rawhide: 	foo-1.0-2.1

20070531 - F-7 release

- FC-6:		foo-1.0-1.fc6 (unchanged)
- F-7:		foo-1.0-2.1 (copied from rawhide)
- rawhide: 	foo-1.0-2.1
(Note that F-7 and rawhide have the same package now, but that's normal
and would have happened with a disttag "fc7" as well )

20070631 - new upstream release

- FC-6:		foo-1.1-1.fc6
- F-7:		foo-1.1-1.fc7
- rawhide: 	foo-1.1-1.1

20070815 - mass rebuild in rawhide

- FC-6:		foo-1.1-1.fc6  (unchanged)
- F-7:		foo-1.1-1.fc7 (unchanged)
- rawhide: 	foo-1.1-2.1

20071031 - F-8 release

- FC-6:		foo-1.1-1.fc6  (unchanged)
- F-7:		foo-1.1-1.fc7 (unchanged)
- F-8: 		foo-1.1-2.1  (copied from rawhide)
- rawhide: 	foo-1.1-2.1

20071130 - rebuild in rawhide against a dep

- FC-6:		foo-1.1-1.fc6  (unchanged)
- F-7:		foo-1.1-1.fc7 (unchanged)
- F-8: 		foo-1.1-2.1 (unchanged)
- rawhide: 	foo-1.1-3.1
(Note that relase of ".3" is higher then ".2")

Makes more sense now?
