Right, but the hardcoded numbers are just some defaults to look for

It does, read the start of the file, you can add to the list by setting
a cmake variable before calling find_package.  

The sole reason for that is so the module doesn't have to be updated
each time a new boost version is out as now the user of the module can
provide additional version numbers as needed.
