No, it's 4213. I've not even read the book, but I hate it when people get that wrong.

Normally, during slumber the brain's information and sensory-processing equipment go offline. The unconsciousness of sleep also "bleeds" slightly into wakefulness, so that most of us can't remember falling asleep, and we are not fully alert when we wake up. That's why we don't remember waking up in the middle of the night -- despite the fact that all of us normally wake up 5 to 10 times each night.

The wording here suggests that some people may remember falling asleep but those are in the minority.
