I don't know if this quote is real or accurate or if this is a bait thread or what and I don't care.

You gotta understand that in hebrew, numbers and letters use the same characters. This leads to lots of number based idioms and double meanings. That's why "40" appears a lot in the bible - raining for 40 days and 40 nights, wandering the desert for 40 years, etc. It was a colloquial way of saying "a lot".

The same is true about six million. It's a prophetical number that occurs repeatedly in their theological texts. Something about returning to holy land after losing six million - I would look it up but it is fucking impossible to search for anything about this these days. If you believe the numbers of the jew then you at best making a literal interpretation of an idiom and at worst professing a belief in actual biblical prophecy coming true.
