In 25-lfs.rules there is,

Shouldn't the mode be 0660?

That's a good question.

Indeed it is! I think it was just taken from the example rules files that ship with the udev tarball. http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2000/11/msg00152.html has some information relating to the security issues surrounding /dev/fb permissions and why Debian changed to using 0620.
And now Debian uses 0660 for both static and udev-based /dev. So Joe is right.
