Why do Porsche's start with 9?

Dumb question, may be obvious, but I don't know about it.
Why do all Porsche models have internal names beginning with 9? For example the 914, the 911, and the 986/987 etc.

Some history behind it? I just found out today why Porsche puts the ignition switch on the left side of the car.
