Every number was expected about that many times after 344 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (46, 51, 58) with the draw of 5 June 1999 — its closest relative in 344 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 97% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (13 March 2002): nothing carried over. Chance says 48% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

244

The numbers add up to 244 — the 93th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 183. No two numbers side by side. 42% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

58 had not appeared for 31 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 85% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈5.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 2,170 winners, 0% more than the 2.2k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
