higher/highest number
Explanation:
Meaning: "higher/highest house number in address".

This is when the address covers more than one number: for example, "C/ Mayor, 21-23". The "número superior" is the higher or highest of the numbers in the address, in this case 23. Normally it will be "higher", because there will be only two, as in my example, but you could in theory have an address like this: "C/ Mayor, 21, 23 y 25", in which case the "número superior" would be the highest number, 25.

Here's an example from Palencia; this is an extract from a table of data types for "empadronamiento":

"CVIA Código de Vía N(5)
TVIA Tipo de Vía A(5)
NVIAC Nombre Corto A(25)
CPSVIA Código de Pseudovía N(5)
DPSVIA Nombre de Pseudovía A(50)
TINUM Tipo de Numeración N(1)
NUMER Número N(4) 1
CNUMER Calificador de NUMER A(1) (nota 1)
NUMERS Número (Superior) N(4) (nota 2)
CNUMERS Calificador de NUMERS (Superior) A(1) (nota 2)
KMT Kilómetro N(3) 16
HMT Hectómetro N(1) 16
BLOQ Bloque A(2) 16
PORT Portal A(2) 16
ESCA Escalera A(2) 16"

Note 2 below reads:
"2.Cuando el domicilio del habitante presente doble numeración, los campos NUMER y CNUMER estarán cumplimentados con la numeración inferior y los campos NUMERS y CNUMERS con la numeración superior. Si el domicilio no presenta esta particularidad, estos dos campos deberán permanecer a blancos."

I was trying to cover all bases, as it were, but on reflection, since the document quoted refers to "doble numeración", we're really just talking about two numbers (21-23 or 26-30, for example), so the translation should just be higher number.

Reference information:
Aquí te explican lo que es:

1.El código de vía será asignado por el Ayuntamiento (en su defecto por el INE). Debe ser numérico y único en el municipio. Para realizar las nuevas asignaciones, se reco-mienda que a la nueva vía lógica se asigne el número inmediatamente superior al último del municipio. Si hay que realizar bajas de vías, se recomienda que no se re-numeren el resto de las vías, pudiendo entonces existir huecos en la numeración.
