I feel like I'm missing some necessary context.

DECO*27 has a similar syntax that is sometimes seen used by boybands, and the number in those cases represents how many members there are in the band.

From what i have seen, it's mostly kpop bands, but funnily enough, since that's not my type of music, the only example I can remember right now is the Jackson 5

The Dave Clark Five is what came to mind first for me
