I think it's with the 1981 re-re-re-release of the original "Star Wars" that "Episode IV - A new hope" was added before the crawl. I remember a lot of people confused by the "Episode V" numbering of "The Empire Strikes Back". And Lucas explaining that in fact Star Wars was a trilogy of trilogies...
