A random number generator could generate the same number more than once in a series of 6 numbers. The odds for picking a series of 6 numbers by random generator out of 53 is 1/53 to the 6th power. The odds of picking a series of 6 numbers out 53 by the method used in Powerball are 1/53 x 1/52 x 1/51 x 1/50 x 1/49 x1/48. Are you claiming the products of these two operations are the same?
