I just found
[1], which shows that all routes are clearly defined, even on overlaps. (It also answers a few questions and may raise a few.) After seeing that, I'm not sure if the table, which would increase in complexity, is a good idea. The highway to route mapping could be in the articles about the highways, and, in the other direction, routes 1-70 were actually signed, and so those numbers that weren't kept probably merit a separate article or a merge into another, and routes greater than 70 mostly became one highway, at least at first. Below I'll work on a list of these original numbers. --

You already mentioned that you found some overlaps. I wanted to point out that MnDOT sent me an excel spreadsheet dated 2002 that actually had several cases of overlap...where there were multiple legislative/constitutional routes on a given stretch of highway. IIRC, there were a few segments that had 4 or 5 LR/CRs on them. Am waiting on a reply from MnDOT about a more recent status than 2002.

After making the list, I find that my suspicions were correct, and most can be covered under one route. The following may have issues:
