Number 666 in the history was connected with power: first that of the emperor, then that of the church, and in the 20th century with that of presidents, nazis, secretaries of communist parties, and global capitalistists. It was connected with Akkadian state, Roman Empire, Catholic Church, and in the end with global corporations. Power as tied with profit, was always seen by its critics as something demonic. History of interpretation of the number 666 shows that its essence is changing: from power (in antiquity) through religion (medieval times) to money (modern times).
