The PDF, HTML, info and ePub output formats have section numbering.

The plain text format doesn't yet, mainly because it's put together with
a local hack -- Sphinx generates one plain text file for each chapter,
but we want a single policy.txt.  We are waiting on better upstream
support.

In the meantime, you might consider using the info output format.
