In the Torah
The Torah holds 495,995 sequences of קיי at skips 2–5,000, 0.3% above what chance alone gives (about 494,715); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 0.03 by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 4:1, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 7,404,545 sequences of קיי, against about 7,667,870 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 494,715 of it, so a large count is expected.
