That got me on the right track, thank you! What I ended up with is a
bit simpler:

#(define sequence-number 0)

#(set! sequence-number (1+ sequence-number))
\score {
\new Staff \with {
    instrumentName = \markup { 
      \concat {#(number->string sequence-number)} "." % "1."
    }
  } 
  % music
}

#(set! sequence-number (1+ sequence-number))
\score {
\new Staff \with {
    instrumentName = \markup { 
      \concat {#(number->string sequence-number)} "." % "2."
    }
  } 
  % music
}
