In the Torah
The Torah holds 6,040 sequences of מדריד across every skip (2–76,212) — about what chance alone gives (about 6,262).
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 3 — at Numbers 6:21, reading forward.
The longest skip at which מדריד was found in the Torah is 75,094 — at Genesis 1:4, reading forward; a spelling of 5 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 76,212.

Examples across the range
5 of the 6,040 sequences, chosen across the range of skips — the shortest, mid-range skips and the longest found — each with its verse and its matrix.
Under each example, every letter of the sequence is listed with the verse it stands in. A letter falls in its verse by position alone — one letter every so many letters of the text — so the verses are where the letters stand, not part of the sequence's meaning.
