Do you have a file to play with?
I'm sorry, I can't post a file right now.
The simplest way to replicate it is to pick black and white. The black is assigned 002 properly, but the white will be assigned some other white shade like 220, instead of the proper 001.
It seems that most of the colors from Janome palette are converted properly, but the Brothread 80 palette (which should be equivalent) has different shades in inkscape and comes out wrong in the conversion.

Oh I see. I guess black and white are in every palette so Ink/Stitch will match it not necessarily to the palette you would it expect it to match to. You can apply a specific palette with Extensions > Ink/Stitch > Thread Color Management > Apply Palette
and Ink/Stitch should respect your choice. Maybe you already did that though?
Yes, I tried Apply Palette already, same result.
I think the problem is with the JEF format writer itself, which assigns color numbers based on its own thread color table.

That is most possibly true. Here is the list: https://github.com/inkstitch/pyembroidery/blob/main/pyembroidery/EmbThreadJef.py
I think we should create a color palette from that list.
Would you be willing to prepare a pull request to add the jef palette?
I have started using a Janome MC500E embroidery machine and noticed that the color numbers displayed are wrong even when using a Janome (or equivalent) color palette in Inkstitch. It looks like the color numbers are always approximated from the RGB values.
Tested on Inkstich v3.1.0
Example: This is a design using Brothread 80 palette (which should be identical to Janome) The color numbers should be: 216, 001, 211, 201, 265, 002
