95/98 was another operating system, though. Windows ~~98~~ ME (forgot about that one) was the last OS in the original Windows series– that Windows that was basically just a graphic shell for DOS.

IIRC, XP was the 5^th^ version of Microsoft's fork of OS/2. OS/2 was rebranded as Microsoft NT in its 3^rd version due to the success of the brand Windows and the failure of OS/2 despite OS/2 having been the superior OS.
