Anybody find this WEIRD...

Type any random 3 digits in google and cases.

Example, 999 cases

Then hit search and scroll a bit. Counties, countries, cities, states are littered with articles with whatever numbers you use. Is this a matter of just odds playing out being 3 digits, that due to the large encounters it will find exact matching multiple sources? Or does it seem odd?

well, think about all of the different localities across the world and the chances of there not being a 101 or 102 or 103 or 104 somewhere in an article is pretty low

Where I was leaning as well. Probability factor and just 3 digits. Though it would pop up daily reports in several counties in my state for whatever numbers I picked and that’s where I questioned it a bit.
