Word keeps track of who enters a comment (thus the initials) as well as the date and time at which a comment was entered. Of course, you may simply want to rethink how you are referring to your comments. The only way to make the numbers non-dynamic is to type them manually and then not change them later. This approach has the same problem as the earlier approach: the numbers are dynamic, they are not static. Your existing comments (and any you add in the future) should now be numbered.
Pick a numbering style and close all open dialog boxes. Word displays the Modify Style dialog box. In the task pane, hover the mouse pointer over the Comment Text style, click the down-arrow to the right of the style name, and choose Modify Style.

(In Word 2007 click the Office button and then click Word Options. If your comments don't show up this way, it could be because you don't have Word configured properly. Comments are automatically numbered in Word. For instance, if I insert comments, then they show up in the comment balloons with my intials (ALW) followed by numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.). That is, they should be numbered as long as you have Word configured to add the initials of the commenter to each comment. When entering comments they should be numbered by default.
