Flaccus could make a good name for a drug lord as well.

Apparently 126 is a very holy number!
Holy Jewish meaning for the name of God, lucky numbers for jews.
126 is 7 times "life" - one for each day of the week.

In Hebrew, each letter also has a numerical value. There's a system called gematria which looks for patterns/similarities in this. So, for example, the word for "life" in Hebrew is composed of two letters whose numerical value is 18. Hence, things like charitable donations, and, in this case, the purchase price of a house are given in multiples of 18 for good luck. --Urban Dictionary

The same applies to ancient Greek numbers and the sum of words was believed not to be random.

132 years ago there was an undeclared war between the Ethiopian Empire and the "great and mighty" Kingdom of Italy who lost the battle. This political, military, imperial, and social failure is one of the causes of the First Italo-Ethiopian War (as opposed to that undeclared first Italo-Ethiopian War).

I might add that any pair of two digits, in any order (13, 17, 31, 37, 71, 73) taken from the above number is also prime.
