service startup confusion

[amit4g]

If the notations( S05,S06,S99 etc) for services under /etc/rc.d/rc?.d
stands for start(S) with priority(05,06,99 etc) the service(kudzu,tcpuspeed,local) then why
two different services have same priority ? because if they are at same priority level
then which will start first ?

e.g.
[root@venus ]# ls -l S05*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Nov 30 13:55 S05kudzu -> ../init.d/kudzu
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Nov 30 13:57 S05openibd -> ../init.d/openibd

They start in alphabetical order. So the 1st one in the 'ls' output is the 1st one that will start.
