Sounds like autism, he might have high functioning autism known as Asperger's Syndrome. My friend's little brother has it and he is very good with math, not as good as when it comes to social skills... but he's still an awesome and wonderful little boy...things like math and obsessions (such as numbers of letters and repeating patterns) are very easy for him, and I've heard even Einstein had this "disorder". Social skills will be a big stumbling block, so its best to get him tested so you can work on this together. :-)
Google Autism and Asperger's Syndrome.

wow, that is so cool! I can't even add big numbers mentally. That only means two things. 1. Your son a whiz on math and is very very cool and amazing. 2. Wow, he's smarter than me how old is he?!?
