It's one of those filthy continental habits like crossing the number 7.

thats a genuine Innocenti gear cog. The "x" is in fact the Innocenti "i" logo as per the logo which you find on disc brake operating arm alloy caps and things such as engine clutch levers etc. It looks like an "x" but is supposed to represent an "i"
Some cogs actually have "Innocenti" stamped onto the flat surface; some have the "i" cast into the metal.
