The million is sometimes used in the English language as a metaphor for a very large number, as in "Never in a million nodes" and "You're one node in a million", or a hyperbole, as in "I've node-walked a million miles" and "You've asked the million node question".

Looks like an URL alias to node/XXX :)
How is it possible that node/999999 and node/1000001 don't exist?

Drupal.org increases its node IDs with 2 instead of 1 as far as i know.

Exactly. It hasn't always been like that though. In other words, we haven't reached the one millionth node yet, but we're doing a great job anyway.

Do you know why that is? I can't think of any logical reason to do that.

Because of MySQL replication. Odd numbers assigned to one server, even to the other.

This was not from the start, but at a certain point maybe 3 years or so ago.

So, the database does not have 1,000,000 nodes. I would say it is above 600,000.

The only way to know for sure is SELECT COUNT(*) FROM node;

I think nids are only even on d.o these days, so while this is a bit of a non-event, what the heck!

I posted http://drupal.org/node/500000 a year and a half ago. Considering that I've been a member of this site since 2003, it's absolutely astonishing to me that we've doubled the amount of content in just a year and a half.

W.O.W. One million nodes. See http://www.midwesternmac.com/node/125, too. D7 has a max of 4,294,967,295 nodes. That would be a milestone!

Yes quite clever to create this node given that 3 other nodes were created within the same minute (999996, 999998, 1000000 and 1000002).

Pretty cool you worked that out. Where...?

How could those have been made with out 999997, and 999999 - were they deleted, or are the nodes alternate for some reason...
