Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia (literally, "fear of the number six-hundred and sixty-six") is the fear that originates in the Biblical verse Revelation 13:18 which indicates that the number 666 is the Number of the Beast, linked to Satan or the Anti-Christ. Outside the Christian faith, the phobia has been further popularized as a motif in various horror films.

agoraphobia: What is agoraphobia? Agoraphobia is the fear of being in a situation where one might experience anxiety or panic and where escape from the situation might be difficult or embarrassing. People with agoraphobia may feel anxious about such things as loss of bladder or bowel control or choking on food in the presence of others. They also might feel anxious about being home alone, leaving home, or being in a crowded place, such as on public transportation or in an elevator, where it might be difficult or embarrassing to find a way out. To avoid the anxiety associated with these situations they refrain from putting themselves into such situations.
There are many others. Just google "types of phobias."

pognophobia - one I have -- fear of beardy folk.
I figure the one you found may be related to a number of a beast and is sited in Revelations - the beast not the phobia - however the text does explain why one should be a little cautious - if not damn terrified of the number.
