Why 6500 is special

It is what a display means by white. D65 approximates average daylight, and sRGB — the colour space almost every screen and web image assumes — is defined against it. Warmer settings look yellow only by comparison with this, which is why a night-mode display feels dimmer without any change in brightness.

In historical numeral systems

6 × 1,000 + 5 × 100 = 6,500. 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.

Technology & computing

  • The colour temperature of the D65 standard white point is about 6500 kelvin (worldwide, CIE and sRGB). It approximates average daylight, and it is what a screen means by white. Warmer settings look yellow against it, which is why night-mode displays feel dimmer without changing brightness at all.
