Interesting Numerical Coincidence on clock tonight

[fishbait]

From here:

At just a little past one in the morning, a detailed digital clock will tell you it's 01-02-03 on 04-05-06. In other words, the third second of the second minute of the first hour -- of the date oh-four, oh-five, oh-six.

Any numerologists care to comment?

Be patient -- we'll get to experience June 6, 2006 together.

Yeah, but if my digital clock says 6:66, I am going to really freak out.

I seem to remember getting a fax about how interesting 01:23:45 6/7/89 was supposed to be.

and another one on 12:34:56 7/8/90 ...

But it is really 01-02-03 on 04-05-2006. I don't think skipping the century is really allowed. Of course in South Africa (where I am) it is 01-02-03 on 05-04-2006 which makes even less sense.

I've never seen a digital clock which tells me the time in hours/minutes/seconds and the full date on the same display simultaneously.

And anyway, surely there's scant numerological significance when the time of day is shown in decreasing increments, but the time of year of shown in increasing increments (or even less significance, surely, if you've got some ridiculous MM/DD/YY system going on )

I have. The local post office has one. I'll poke around the internet and look for an image of one.

A numerical coincidence? It was really quite predictable, as were:

00/01/02 03:04:05
01/02/03 04:05:06
02/03/04 05:06:07

I hereby predict:

06/05/04 03:02:01
10/11/12 13:14:15

and a bunch of other ones, too.

06/05/04 03:02:01
10/11/12 13:14:15

Or the old favorite: 5.4.32 10.

[This was the date and time when liquor shops opened in Finland for the first time after prohibition.]

And each of these 'mathematical phenomenon' will happen 48 times. Twice each day, in each of 24 time zones. Doesn't even seem so rare as to incite comment.

I heard George Noory talking about this on Coast to Coast last night. Is that where you heard it?
