A person sees lots of different numbers every day.

The numbers that a person remembers seeing are those that mean something to the person, a personal meaning or an emotional significance.

That's how people get started seeing certain numbers all the time — repeatedly remember seeing the meaningful numbers.

Then something happens. The person wonders if the action of seeing the numbers is itself significant.

With that, a mystery is created. The subconscious is compelled to solve mysteries. It isn't solvable with the only data being that it's seen repetitively and there's a thought that may be significant.

So the subconscious will try to bring the person's conscious attention to the number whenever it exists in the environment so more data can be gathered.

Now, the numbers are seen even more often. And remembered more often. And the conviction that there must be a significance attached to what's understood to be unusual events is strenthened.
