 I think Peter Davidson (in character) mentioned in "The Five
Doctors" that he was the fourth regeneration of the Doctor.

 He does, and the first Doctor responds with "oh, so there are
five of me now."
 And there have been one or two other mentions down the years.
 But it's a rarity and regardless of whether you accept that the
Timeless Children shows a "reset"forgetting an unknown number
of previous regenerations, the existence of the War Doctor,
David Tennant counting as three (two incarnations but three
regenerations) and now the insertion somehow of not only the
Fugitive Doctor but also the Shalka Doctor into the Doctor's
pasts, indicates that any in-universe counting has become
meaningless.
 So these days the only place the number has meaning is in fannish  conversation and used to refer to the precedence of an
actor to have had the lead role for a season or TV movie - and
even there we're now counting Tennant twice.

 And that all contradicts the Timeless child.

 How, Gobble-de-gook?? How does 'all that' contradict The Timeless
Child, Gobble-de-gook??

 Don' expect anything logical from Dave...

in his world everything contradicts the Timeless Child!
