I think votes increase the id. I'd need to check the source though.

  Nope. Submissions and comments share database table, ergo, identificators

  You don't need to check the source for that it makes absolutely no sense. That would mean that with every vote all the content on the site would move around, like a giant musical-webpages version. Votes are at the cross of users and items, they live in their own space. They're 'owned' by a user and they are pointing to the item that was voted on, which contains a counter tallying up the total.
