In OmniOutliner individual row specific styles including numbering  
override the row level styles and document wide styles. It may be  
that you have a numbering style set for your level 4 rows which is at  
the individual row level. To check this go to the style attributes  
inspector and click on one of the problematic rows. The attributes  
should be separated based on this priority scheme. If there are  
styles that apply to just that row they will be listed first with an  
attribute heading section that looks like Row "<some text>". If you  
also have attributes set for all rows of that level they will be  
listed in a section below with a heading like All level n rows. And  
finally document specific styles will be listed in their own section  
at the bottom. I don't know how you would change the individual  
settings en masse, but you can delete them individually by clicking  
on the x on the right hand side in the inspector listing.

Hope this helps,
