ip address confusion

well the deal is that I didn't want to run another cable from my router. My
confusion isn't on getting it to work but rather the numbers that have been
assigned from the second router. I was thinking that it might have to do
with perhaps they had already been assigned ip addresses but the lfs
computer was not previously assigned a number. Is it that the modem is
handing out addresses until it gets to 192.168.0.125 and then the router
takes over in giving addresses?
