I think Kern gave the reason - to prevent or rather, make more unlikely, cases where the generated volume name doesn't work because you have "holes" in the existing volume names. Like in V1, V2, V4, the next volume would be created as V4 because there are only three volumes in this sequence. (Bacula handles this _to some extent_ by retrying with an incremented number, but this is limited.) By the way - even using the number of all volumes can fail, but the most useful approach - taking the highest number in existence, and then adding to it - is really more difficult to implement than it's worth.
