Leading numbers are not necessary in most cases.
I use:
server europe.pool.ntp.org
server europe.pool.ntp.org
server europe.pool.ntp.org
That selects 3 random servers from the whole
europe pool.
The point of using the leading numbers is to make sure the three servers chosen
from the pool are actually different machines.
If you've only got a small number of machines, having each contact an external
NTP server is reasonable. If you've got, say, ten or more machines, set up
three of them to contact external NTP servers and each other as peers, and have
the rest of the machines on your network talk to your local NTP servers.
