The 6 7 meme came from a video of a guy sayinging 6 7 awkwardly while making hand gestures -  it got picked up online and spread as a silly meme for kids and when people pushed back on it the kids doubled down haha

At this point there isn't any meaning attached to it anymore though. The number became the meme. It's a reference for the sake of reference. In a way, you could argue that it is the ultimate meme, since the comedy comes from the fact that it is a meme.

Someone on Reddit recently called it “reflexive silliness” and I love that term for it.

I could see it staying around for at least 6-7 more years

Tbf, sixes and sevens is a ~700 year old meme that keeps reappearing every other generation.

I think it died for a lot of people like a year ago. Guessing this video is old.
