P666

After all, it's the mark of the beast, and TheDamian had no small contribution. (Not discounting others' contributions, but I would count his role head and shoulders above most.)

And if it was just called 666, then shell bang shortcuts wouldn't work. (At least, I don't know how to rerun a script called "1" with "!1", since that will rerun the "first" shell command.)
