There are a lot of opportunities in the day for something to happen that might prompt you to think "wow, that's one in a thousand", though. It wouldn't have been worth wasting a moment wondering if it was coincidence unless you had some reason to suspect an alternative hypothesis, like that it changed because the mouse moved.
bit that makes no sense deleted
I think there are less opportunities than you think. I could look at the clock and see that it's precisely on the half-hour; that's the only thing that comes to mind. Also, I can't figure out what your second paragraph is all about; I found your comment confusing overall.
I've noticed a few times when the size of a computer folder was exactly 666 MB.
AngryParsley noticed when my LW karma was exactly 666.
Apparently I even took a screenshot of that event, but I missed when I got 2^8 karma.
Second part made no sense on re-reading; I've deleted it. Sorry about that.
I'll see if I can think of some examples...
