And there is another thing,
It works horizontally and vertically


142857=27 142857*1
285714=27 142857*2
428571=27 142857*3
571428=27 142857*4
714285=27 142857*5
857142=27 142857*6

=
27




The sum of digits of all it multiples when put like this, equals 27.
And a very easy way to remember this is that it is the decimal representation of 1/7...
