From our friends at MSNBC

"LOTTERY OFFICIALS said Thursday that 5,631 people selected the winning sequence. It wasn’t immediately clear how much they won.
The 9-1-1 combination was picked so often, it reached the lottery’s set limit for combinations and sold out, Hapeman said. On any given day, seven to 10 sets of numbers are “closed out,” she said.
Christopher M. Rump, an assistant professor of industrial engineering who studies probability at the University of Buffalo, said there was a one in 1,000 chance of the numbers ”9-1-1” coming up on in the lottery."

I'm guessing these folks didn't win that much. What a disturbing coincidence though, that these numbers came up.
