Not sure if you will find this comment, but I'd be very curious to hear what the magnitudes of "four-force" and "four-potential" are as well!

My layman's research suggest these are, respectively, "electric charge" and "current"?

That doesn't sound right to me. Note that four-force is a generic concept not limited to electromagnetism. Current is the source term of Maxwell's equations, which connect it to the potential via the d'Alembert operator.
