The RARDEN used a L86 fuze and the ADEN a No. 944 fuze (there were probably others). British fuze numbering wasn't strictly chronological, however 341 dates to about early to mid 1930s.
So I assume It could be L86 series fuze with wrong designation. I know also L3/1 with same shape for 30mm. Maybe the "/" in the desgination became "4" in the museum (?!)
When museums obtain collections by purchase or from donors they often do not come with an identification of each item. They depend on so called friends of the museum for identification of items and they are not always what they might be.
If you look at the method of operation of the sticky bomb in the grenade cabinet of the Combined Services Military Museum you may learn something amazing.
