For single dynamic indicators (like mp, fff etc) you could insert one
and then go to the Object Editor, Advanced and change the value in the
Midibytes field (the range is 0-127 from the MIDI spec). Once you have
your chosen dynamic you can clone it to a palette button etc.

Alternatively I see the default values are set in the script for the
command:
Command: Dynamics
Choose dynamics and midi volume level.
Location: Object Menu ▶ Directives ▶ Markings
Internal Name: DynamicText

in that script there is this:

(define DefaultDynamicList '(("fff" "127" "Fortississimo")("ff" "111"
"Fortissimo") ("f" "95" "Forte") ("mf" "79" "MezzoForte")("mp" "63"
"MezzoPiano") ("p" "47" "Piano") ("pp" "31" "Pianissimo") ("ppp" "15"
"Pianississimo") ("More" "60" "") ("ppppp" "5" "ppppp")("pppp" "7"
"pppp")("ffff" "127" "ffff") ("fp" "" "fp")
   ("sf" "" "sf") ("sff" "" "sff") ("sp" "" "sp" ) ("spp" "" "spp")
("sfz" "" "sfz") ("rfz" "" "rfz") ("Custom" "" "")))

so you could edit that and save the script which would then override
the default script.
