It's a number.

It is a symbol of the Anti- christ...the beast. It is said that if you take this number in any way after the rapture that you are not able to go to heaven. I am not sure of what form 666 will be in, but many believe it will be a microchip in the hand or forehead that will be sort of like a credit or debit card. It will be the only way to by groceries and stuff.

..besides the fact 666 is a real number...in the bible, God gives numbers meaning for symbolism...as far as I know:
3 is for emphasis, 6 is for imperfection, 7 is for perfection, and 10 also 12 have meanings like complete, and government.
Maybe someone else can elaborate more with scriptures???
I don't have time right now...bye
.....so to me 3 6's is very very very imperfect....God's description of a certain earthly organization...also called a wild beast....Rev 13..

666
Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

(James Moffatt translation)
Now for the gift of interpretation. Let the discerning calculate the cipher of the Beast; it is the cipher of a man, and the figures are six hundred and sixty-six.

Six hundred threescore and six
G5516 χξς chi xi stigma khee xee stig'-ma
The 22nd, 14th and an obsolete letter (G4742 as a cross) of the Greek alphabet (intermediate between the 5th and 6th), used as numbers; denoting respectively 600, 60 and 6; 666 as a numeral: - six hundred threescore and six.
G4742 στίγμα stigma stig'-mah
From a primary word στίζω stizō (to “stick”, that is, prick); a mark incised or punched (for recognition of ownership), that is, (figuratively) scar of service: - mark.

In Greek alpha represents 1 and beta 2 and so on up to iota, which is 10. After that kappa is 20, lambda 30 and so on up to ro, which is 100. Sigma is 200, tau 300 and so on up to omega, which is 800

The name of Caesar Nero in Greek is 666

It was the number of the Emperor Nero (his name and number codes the early Christians and Jewish people used) Nero persecuted the early Christians. He was the beast of that age. Having writtings that called him by name would be you killed and tortured and endanger the community more. Hence 666 the number of the beast.

Well as a number yes it is a true number, just as 214 and 685 are. Is it true that it is the mark of the beast? No. Satan does not exist.

Satan or demons were created by early humanity to explain away such things as famines, disease, death, pestilence and natural disasters until science evolved enough to explain these events.

666 is a symbol, stands for the condemned one, the beast. It is said to be "the number of his name".

666 in itself is just another number, but it represents anti-christianity or anti-religion. Stuff like that.

Yes. It is a real and true number that comes just after 665 and before 667.
