In the Torah
The Torah holds 344,678 sequences of מחת at skips 2–5,000, 0.6% above what chance alone gives (about 342,602); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 0.0002 by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 1:2, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 5,546,923 sequences of מחת, against about 5,310,175 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 342,602 of it, so a large count is expected.
