Is it a real question? Because 451 is not random
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/400_%28number%29#450s
451 = 11 × 41; 451 is a Wedderburn–Etherington number and a centered decagonal number; its reciprocal has period 10; 451 is the smallest number with this period reciprocal length.
The novel Fahrenheit 451 refers to the temperature in Fahrenheit that author Ray Bradbury understood to be the autoignition point of paper.
