    124248 is the consecutive numbering of the chassis and engine.  In other words, it was the 124248th 1949 Hudson produced - that's all that part of the vin means.  Back in 1949, very few auto makers had figured out that they could use the vin number to tell those of us that have come along much later more important details of the vehicle with numbers and letters.
