nt4y2k4a is the 40-bit encryption SP4 for the ALPHA, not Intel (nt4y2k4i.exe).
y2k indicates that files will be installed to offset any millennium problems.

I successfully installed the 40-bit plus 2yk, followed by the 128-bit install a
few days later.

More explicit info:

40-bit version; but also 76MB file which contains the Y2K and other
server-specific updates:

They only have the 40-bit version, whose readme.txt warns: IMPORTANT: SP4
contains only 40-bit encryption. This release isn't supported for installation
on an existing North American 128-bit installation of Windows NT 4.0. If you
install SP4 on a computer with 128-bit encryption, system services might fail
to start.

US and Canadian customers can download the 128-bit version of Windows NT 4.0
Service Pack 4 from:

U.S. and Canadian customers can also order the 128-bit SP4 on CD-ROM (part #
236-01176) for US$ 14.95 plus shipping and sales tax by calling 1-800-370-9758.
