Major System pegs 400–499
The r sound leads, and r-initial English is rich, so these pegs tend to come out as real words with little effort. 404 (razor) and 444 (roarer) are curated. Programmers will want 404 to be something error-shaped; that is exactly the kind of override this table expects you to make.
The digit 4 encodes r, so every one of the hundred pegs below opens on that sound and then spells the remaining two digits with the same table the 00-99 chart uses. Read the encoding column as the consonant skeleton: the vowels between them are free, which is the whole reason a peg word can be found for every number.
