It isn't.
The seven-day week was originated by the Babylonions, whence the Hebrew folk got it; and when their Moses invented the Bible god he made god conform to it.

When man began to analyze and combine numbers, he developed other interesting symbols. He took the perfect world number FOUR and added to it the perfect divine number, THREE, and got SEVEN, the most sacred number to the Hebrews. It was earth crowned with heaven -- the four-square earth plus the divine COMPLETENESS OF GOD. So we have SEVEN expressing COMPLETENESS through union of earth with heaven. This number is used more than all other numbers in the Word of God, save the number ONE.

Because the 7th day God rested. Man abided in Christ whole; body, soul & spirit.
When we are born again, born of His Spirit, we are whole again (almost); body (still corrupt), soul & spirit (new, everlasting). Then we enter into His Rest. The 7.
Seven is the number of rest, completion, healing, fulness of, Gods best, etc... The 7 eyes of God = how God completely sees. The 7 Churches = the whole Church. 7 Spirits = Fullness of Gods Spirit. Etc...

The variety 7 is a range. they do no longer have divine properties. i be counted on God. in simple terms bear in mind that Jackass is said one hundred forty four circumstances interior the Bible and that i imagine there's a reason behind this. It can't be twist of destiny.

It is 42 divided by 7. Now if I could only figure out what 6 signifies.

that's funny.
God used seven a lot in the old and new testaments and He used forty too.
I don't know exactly why God picked that number. I guess it's part of the mystery :)

Assuming for a minute there is a god, Why would he/she need a number?

it isn't God's number
it is the perfect number
this is becuase the lord created the world in 6 days then on the SEVENTH he rested
there are other reasons that I don't know but you can go on bible.com and research it.
