Thanks All
Without a picture, I can't be sure what the second mark (2) you're talking about is. Can you attach a picture?

It could be the lens hood alignment marker or a mark related to point of focus instead of focal length. The barrel will rotate depending on where you focus (e.g. 3 feet away vs. infinity). If that's the case, as FoxCow says it'll be 300mm either way.
