Firefox’s release cycles switched from six weeks to four weeks a few years ago. Chrome and Firefox are both on four week release cycles, so Firefox’ version number won’t overtake unless Mozilla or Google change something.

They’ll both hit version 100 in just a month or two. If too many websites are broken because they never expected a browser’s User-Agent string to have a version number with more than two digits, Chrome or Firefox might need to freeze the version number advertised in the User-Agent string.
