616

At the risk of sounding petty the original number of the 'beast' was 6i6, something like that. A Christian scholar later changed it to 666 presumably because he thought it sounded cooler. Yes alright it was petty, I'll get my coat. Oh hang on there is a link about it on that famously reliable website wikipedia...gives a different story to mine but still mentions the discrepancy from the translated bible to the sources it was gathered from. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_the_Beast
