The series and engine type (base I6 vs. base V8) are the 12nd & 3rd numbers and the model (body style) are the last two numbers. The first number shown in the 'Produced' column is domestic production, the second number is export production, and the total production is the last number.  

The Series/Model columns correspond to VIN series & body style and not Fisher Body plate Style numbers.

This total production number agrees with Chevrolet's Accumulative Production Report of August 2, 1966.

Caveats:
(1) The total production according to the reported last VIN of each assembly plant totals 446,633 leaving 731 units built in the U.S. unaccounted for in the above figures.
(2)  Production for Canada is listed at 20,112 units but specific series/model are not included in the series/model figures for 1966. The 23,688 number is pretty evenly split between 6-cylinder and 8-cylinder engines with 11,731 6-cylinder models and 11,957 8-cylinder models built.  However, it is known from Vintage Vehicle Services documentation that there were 230 series/model 13267 V8 300 convertibles built and 5,081 13617 V8 Malibu sport coupes built.
(3) GM of Canada did not include all model lines of its U.S. counterpart, only the 300 series and Malibu series were produced. As a sort of compensation, a 300 series convertible was offered in Canada and the base sedan pickup was based on the 300 series and not the 300 Deluxe series.
