When I was stationed in Germany, I bought a bunch of Revell of Germany enamel paints in little tins like Humbrol uses. I remember buying colors based on the cap color which was the color of the contents.

Another possibility based on a search of "revelle model paint" from the revelle germany web site is
Interestingly, your numbers are specifically missing from the right hand digits of the left column of the Revelle cross reference guide. IE, I might guess that your 41 is a greenish color, your 44 is a grey/green color, your 63/64 colors are greens and your 73/74 are grays.
