Their claim is that is the 6M number was chosen because it represents something important to the Jewish religion

It does. Its a prophecy from the Torah about the return of the Jews to Israel (after they were forced into yet another exodus). The passage was: ''You shall return minus 6 million.'' The Jews have always interpreted this as meaning that 6 million of their people would need to die as part of a ritual sacrifice, before they could return to Israel.

They were trying to invoke that prophecy for many decades prior to WW2. Jews would write articles about 6 million of their people being in danger, suffering, starving, or even dying. They didn't strike gold until WW2 and the Holocaust happened. BTW, the etymology of that word is very important. Holocaust means a burnt offering.

It really puts the whole thing into perspective.
