If transaction ids repeated themselves, then garbage collection would
be in a lot of trouble, as would the whole multi version record thing.
Every transaction gets the next ID.

But you cant really use it for anything with long term significance,
as a backup-restore cycle resets it back to 0. Still it is helpful
information from time to time.
