This sentence blew my stack. How about

    Additional faces @code{line-number-Nth-line} and
    @code{line-number-Mth-line} can be used to highlight the line numbers
    of lines which are a multiple of certain numbers.  Customize
    @code{display-line-numbers-Nth-line} and
    @code{display-line-numbers-Mth-line} respectively to set those
    numbers.

One other point: if N is a multiple of M, then lines numbers which are
multiples of both N and M get the 'N' face applied, which implies that
you should set N > M in that situation to avoid confusion. Would it
make sense to document that? (enforcing it via custom would be
overkill, I think).
