The significance of the number six for the Jews
- The David star is a Six pointed star.
- The World created in Six days *
- The Six Days War
- The Six books of the Mishnah, the rabbinic compilation of the Torah + Scriptural Reference
- The Six Alivots recited during the Yom Kippur
- Noe was Six hundred years old at the time of the deluge
- According to the Talmud (Mishnah and the Gemara = the source of the Halakhah the Jewish law) Jewish history will last Six thousand years

In the philosophical dictionary of Voltaire, we find, in the notice "Jew", the first mention of the number Six in relation to extermination:

"It is also asked what right foreigners such as the Jews had over the land of Canaan: it is answered that they had what God gave them. No sooner have they taken Jericho and Lais than they have a civil war between them in which the tribe of Benjamin is almost entirely exterminated, men, women and children; only six hundred males remained: but the people, not wanting one of the tribes to be annihilated, took it into their heads, to remedy the situation, to set fire and sword to an entire city of the tribe of Manasseh, to kill there all the men, all the old men, all the children, all the married women, all the widows, and to take there six hundred virgins, which they gave to the six hundred survivors of Benjamin to rebuild this tribe,so that the number of their twelve tribes would always be complete."

>>>   Jewish history will last Six thousand years

Well given that they're 5783 years into their calendar, that leaves only 217 years.

Maybe they could fast forward 2 1/6 centuries and end their history today.
