I know the answer to your question. Look at this topic: https://developer.salesforce.com/forums?id=906F00000009CUSIA2.
Actually, per documentation, Email, Number, Text, AutoNumber can be set as ExternalID. However, in real situation, if you wanted to upsert some data using dataloader you cannot user AutoNumber as ExternalId. So, this means that AutoNumber despite being declared as ExternalId, is not always completely functional ExternalId like in upsert case for dataloader.
