Actually you are misreading the serial number; only the first digit after the letter identifies the year. The "MN9" part translates as follows - M = "Mexico", N = "Nineties", and "9" = the year in the Nineties, so that means "1999". The "4" is the first number of your 6-digit serial number.

Since MIM guitars change over their serial numbers about mid-year, so an MN9XXXXXX serial number could have been used any time from say June/July 1999 through June/July 2000.

There isn't a public register; you can email Fender's customer relations to get more info on your guitar: consumerrelations@fender.com
