on the chans, since their creation, repeating digits in your (essentially randomly assigned) post number indicate "truthiness" / "meme magic". basically, whatever someone says under the authority of "triples" ("287333") is likely to be true; the authority of "quads" ("5819999") means that it is or will become true; and 8 8's in a row is some kind of actual deific intervention that can alter reality to truthify the post.
