Why 4960 is special

It offers multiple streams and multihoming, which TCP does not, and it is used almost entirely inside telecommunications signalling rather than on the web.

In historical numeral systems

Egyptian

4 lotuses, 9 coils of rope, 6 hobbles

4 × 1,000 + 9 × 100 + 6 × 10 = 4,960. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.

Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.
