I disagree. The three separators are exactly the same as the number six. I agree they are not used as the number six though. I don’t buy into the mark of the beast crap but I found it to be a very interesting coincidence (cannot buy or sell unless you accept the mark of the beast (paraphrasing)).
Which is itself willful fear-mongering by just having passing familiarity with The Bible and simultaneously claiming it as their defining identity.
The Mark of the Beast is specifically a thing on the forehead or hand. It’s not numbers on a can of beans. And that’s before you get into everything about old numerology and contemporary societies that Revelation was probably talking about.
And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark - the name of the beast or the number of its name.
Somehow I doubt requiring a MAGA hat for purchase would get the same level of push back for example.
