21 stands for ... 'Olympus OM'.

Some aftermarket accessory manufacturers use a two digit number to
indicate the brand the accessory is built for.
For Olympus this is 21.

Another good example is Metz, which makes adapters to be used with
their flashguns for many different cameras. The Olympus adapters have
the number 321 or 521.
