In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, רעם appears 540,254 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 541,361, so the count is in line with chance.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), רעם is found 8,539,700 times; chance alone would give about 8,390,860.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 541,361 of it, so a large count is expected.
