yes, superstition says that this is so. it stems from the fact that God created the world and then rested on the 7th day so 7 is a 'lucky' number. in Christian belief there are 3 holy figures The Father, The Son and the Holy ghost. this accounts for the 3 7s that make up the number. Is is said that man was created on the 6th day. Satan or the Devil, if you prefer is said to be "The God of flesh" (the god of everyother man) therefore his numbers are all 6s.

Friend, where did you get the idea that 666 is the devils number? Did others teach you to accept that or is it something you did reason out? I see in one answer a Bible quote is given that says: Revelation 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. Another Bible quote says this:" This calls for wisdom; let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast., for it is a human number. its number is six hundreds and sixty six." [of course it is seen as 666] In the later quote I see the word "Its" rather than a personal pronoun of "his". I also see it is a human number which seems to assign a source. However I only see an identification of it being a mark and nothing said about it being a name of a man. I see nothing here that says the number 6 is evil or good. As I do read the answers you received I do see a lot of religion in them and a lot of doctrines learned from others. I see very little of deep consideration of what is actually declared in the Bible in the precise words quoted. Is it not that all have seen the mark with this number as being your question and not the actual question you ask in "Why is 666 the devils number?" If you meant to say "Why is it that all see the mark of the or the mark with the 666 as being other than good or as being a follower of the devil then that is what you should have stated. If I am wrong, please do forgive me, but I am just enjoying myself and actually stating what I do see. Such is because that this is my pure innate nature because I am a "NO".. Do have a good day.

666 is a reference to the beast of the Apocalypse in revelations. The whole 777 thing is just numerology jive.
