Here is the trick:

================================================
% output=pdf interface=en

\setupfootnotes[way=bytext] % the key

\starttext

{Title\footnote{test}} % 1
{Title\footnote{test}} % 2
\incrementnumber[footnote]
%\setupnumber[footnote][start=3] % or
%\setnumber[footnote]{3} % or
Test\footnote{test} % 4?

\stoptext
================================================

keep in mind that start is only used when a number is reset (per page, chapter, etc) and that when you set a number, it will be incremented at the next usage (so indeed 3 is needed to get 4 next)
