37037 x 1 x 3 = 111111
37037 x 2 x 3 = 222222
37037 x 3 x 3 = 333333
37037 x 4 x 3 = 444444
37037 x 5 x 3 = 555555
37037 x 6 x 3 = 666666
37037 x 7 x 3 = 777777
37037 x 8 x 3 = 888888
37037 x 9 x 3 = 999999
However this is not very surprising because (look at the first line)
37037 x 3 = 111111
You are just multiplying 111111 by the other sigle digit numbers.
It would also work for 37037037

This is only because any 6 digit number consisiting of all the same digits i.e. 888888, divided by that digit (8) = 111111.
111111 divided by 3 = 37037.
So the same can be done for several numbers, for example:
15873 x (number from 1 to 9) x 7 gives the same results.
Hardly rocket science.

That's Bcause 37037*3=111111.

37037 * 3 = 111111
Any number (single digit) multiplied by 111111 will contain only digits the same as that number

37037*3=111111
that's why
so ofcourse it will work also if you'll multiply this number 111111 on any number 1-9
also
111111=37*13*11*7*3
so it will also work with the intiall number 3367 and than will have to multiply it by 33
or with the number 10101 - than multiply it by 11
......

Very cool.
And 37037/3 = 12345.67 (if you round)
123456789 * 2 = 246913578; each has all the number 1 - 9

That's 'cos 37037*3=111111
When you multiply, order doesn't matter, so a*b*c=a*c*b

Do the same with 37037037 or 37037037037 or any similar number that is a series of 370's and ending 37 and I suspect you will get the same result.
