Thanks GJC for your comments!
but...
I just want to set the order number to 3000, any hints on this?

Thanks for any kinds of help!

The default order number is hardcoded in Virtuemart (file administrator/components/com_virtuemart/models/orders.php, function generateOrderNumber) as:
  -) Count of existing orders in the database
  -) Plus the constant VM_ORDER_OFFSET

That constant offset VM_ORDER_OFFSET is defined in administrator/components/com_virtuemart/helpers/config.php with a value of 3.

So to change the default VM order number counter, all you can do is to modify that config.php file from the VM code base, which will, however, be overwritten when you update VM...

Best regards,
Reinhold
