They still haven't used the F6x, F7x or F9x numbers, but perhaps the jump to G-series signifies a change in electronics and technologies as well so they wanted to differentiate from the F-series.

I believe they jumped to G because they are using the 35up platform now for all rwd models. It is possible they are reserving those codes for the upcoming 1er sedan and other random cars they introduce in mini. F60 is trademarked by Ferrari and F70 is LG Electronics. not sure if a platform code would infringe on that though.
