When you see a reference to pointing to number 1 they are talking about the rotor pointing to the #1 wire tower on the cap. This has nothing to do with the physical location of cylinder number One or its spark plug.
The tower in the cap that is towards the front of the engine is just the normal location for the tower used for #1.

Ahhh, good to know. This actually makes a lot of sense.
