Fact Check

Quoted text:

McClain[1] (1976: p. 80) believed that the six winged horses may refer to 1:2:3:4:5:6, defining everything in allegory: 3p5q < 604 = 12,960,000.

Can you help us to check the math (and check the citation as per this query)? We couldn’t figure the math out based on p. 80 of McClain. Originally cited was page 89 instead of page 80, but page 89 seemed less relevant to this discussion. Also, originally, p and q were not formatted as superscript.
