Month number up to 36 months

Hi,

 

 I do have a date table that has Month number 1 -12. I'll be needing to have a Month number that is up to 36 months

from there I will calculate the running total. My problem is I don't know how to extend those Month numbers up to 36.

 

Is there a way to extend the month number perhaps adding an additional column in my date table? 

 

Expected results below

I updated the view above.  I just realize that just the number of months will do and yes my bad the example above is just used as a representation.

 

pretty much a running total for 36 months that has an indicator on the left side 1-36
