Kennedy Express Lane Sign Correction

I was just reminded of this the other day sitting in traffic, thought it perfect for the forum!

On the outbound express lanes that lead to the Edens, there's an overhead sign pointing out a lane ending in 500 feet. When the rebuilding was done in the '90s, the sign originally said 5100 feet. This was obviously wrong and corrected, and it's obvious because there's too much of a space between the 5 and the 00s on the sign now. It looks as though there's just a 5 painted on a yellow piece of steel that's mounted over the error.

I drove by this sign 'error' yesterday and my take on it is a bit different. Yes there's too much space between the 5 and the'00s but one can still faintly make out the errant '1' in that gap. There's no painted piece of steel over the error.
