Every article has source references that are numbered and listed at the bottom of the page. That’s how reference documents work. Every encyclopedia or article containing research sources will have that. The 17 just means it’s the 17th numbered source in the article
Yes, I realize that, lol. That's why I didn't give it any real weight and only mentioned it in speculation as a little coincidence. Other people's little coincidences have led me to interesting connections and it's the only reason I mention them, incase someone notices something I didn't. I claim nothing as solid unless I specify so. Definitely throwing spaghetti at the wall here.
