I'm sure that you're correct, since you live there....but 144 (at least in Western Maryland) consists of parts of the old Route 40, which is what the "National Road" turned into. So, depending on where you are, the old "National Road" could be 40 or 144, regardless of where the "National Road" is currently located.

I just thought it was really neat to see part of the RAAM when driving at 10 @ night.
