The reality check

What the machines actually did with 60, across every lottery this site holds a long record for.

Powerball95of 103 expected−0.77σ
UK Lottopool stops at 59
EuroMillionspool stops at 50
SuperEnalotto146of 161 expected−1.22σ
Set for Lifepool stops at 44

Across 2 lotteries that hold a 60, its average deviation from expectation is −1.00σ. Statistically ordinary, everywhere. (3 of the games do not go that high.)

The one thing a belief about a number can measurably do is change how many people play it — and a jackpot shared more ways is worth less to each winner. That is the only real consequence, and it is arithmetic rather than folklore.
