You appear to misunderstand FirstCustomFieldValue.  It is the first
value for the custom field passed in.  It has nothing to do with
something being the 'third CF assigned to a ticket'.

If you actually have a custom field with multiple values, you want to
reread the documentation in RT::Record and look for the similarly
named method a few lines later
