    The group interval property splits the year into months starting at 1, so a group interval of 3 used on a date/time field grouped on month would give you Jan/Feb/Mar and Apr/May/Jun etc. starting at feb will give you feb/mar then apr/may/jun. Similar concept to if you grouped a date/time field...
