If you need to export your label with assigning specific indices, then you need to create a color table and specify that. Specifically you need to use this section of the `Segmentations` module:

Also see this [Segmentations — 3D Slicer documentation](https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/modules/segmentations.html#export-segmentation-to-labelmap-volume-file)

**The label value is index of the color table entry that has the same name as the segment name.**
