Keeping old numbers when changing divisions?

I recently moved from NHRA Division 6, to Division 1. I have had the same NHRA Competition number since the mid 70s, I was wondering if it would be OK to keep the same number, or if I have to apply for a Div.1 number. I know when Brad Burton moved from Colorado to Washington , he retained his Div.5 number, but maybe being a former National Champion comes with special privileges? If possible, would I need to keep signed up in Div.6, or in Div.1 and ask to keep my old number? I don`t know if it coincidence or not, but my NHRA member number also starts with a 6, I wonder if changing Divisions would effect that as well.
