[Samba] SIDs

I'm wondering where the three 10 digit numbers that make up an SID come
from. In other words, the X's in the example below:

S-1-5-21-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-2202

Can these just be made up?

Does every SID on a system have to have the same numbers in these
positions?

Thanks
