JackANorey It's gematria. You add the numbers in the sequence and reduce them to their lowest possible point of addition. EXAMPLE: (zeroes are removed and irrelevant)  06/25/2009  (6+2+5+2+9) = 24 ... (2+4) = 6 (6+25+2+9) = 42 ... (4+2) = 6 ~~~ 08/29/1958 (8+2+9+1+9+5+8) = 42 ... (4+2) = 6 (8+29+1958) = 1995 ... (1+9+9+5) = 24... (2+4) = 6
