Even thought no one else has commented, I agree, while not completely convinced I am convinced enough. I am adding it to the summary!

I looked through at all of the 4s in the book. They mostly appear with an open top, rather than a closed top as shown in this room. They appear with a closed top in these other rooms only:

11, 14, 29, 25, 31, 37

If you look at them, you’ll see that the bit that sticks off to the right (the front bear paw in the diagram) is markedly shorter in all of those other instances of a closed-top 4. That’s enough to convince me that this was a deliberate hint to pick door 4 — Manson drew the 4 to match the paws.
