G<num> -- the "grade" of the kanji. At most one per line.
G1 to G6 indicates the grade level as specified by the Japanese Ministry of Education for kanji that are to be taught in elementary school (1006 Kanji). These are sometimes called the "Kyouiku" (education) kanji and are part of the set of Jouyou (daily use) kanji;
G8 indicates the remaining Jouyou kanji that are to be taught in secondary school (additional 1130 Kanji);
G9 and G10 indicate Jinmeiyou ("for use in names") kanji which in addition to the Jouyou kanji are approved for use in family name registers and other official documents. G9 (649 kanji, of which 640 are in KANJIDIC) indicates the kanji is a "regular" name kanji, and G10 (212 kanji of which 130 are in KANJIDIC) indicates the kanji is a variant of a Jouyou kanji;</num>

oops, I see. (In the dictionary Jishop I was using the remaining 1130 was split in 7,8,9,10 groups so I thought that was the case here). sorry.
