No, the ID of each response is unique. Per say I clicked submit button 5 times at the completion of a Form, it will create 5 same responses and mark it with continuous number such as ID: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Just like in database, when you mark the primary key column auto-increment.

Sean_Shen what I am seeing has the same ID. In your instance, you see 1,2,3,4,5. I am getting 1,2,3,4,5,4,5,4,5,3,4,5,4,5,3,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,5. No pattern, just random duplication.
