Whats' the sign?

I find this interesting and need an answer for this. If the hand gesture below represents a number, what number do you think it represent?


What number does this represent?

The first impression i had is the number 6 and told that to a US friend of mine. The response i get is "Why is it 6? Which country convention is that?". I thought for a moment and i was kinda of stump. Why do we use that to represent 6? Is it suppose to represent the horns and hence associated with the devil and therefore the number 6? Is that an international representation? I am not sure but somehow i always associate that guessture with 6.

On a side note, the above guessture was done by eve. When I ask her to show me how she represent 1. She SHOW her version to me and i was surprise that hers was really quite long!


Quite a long 1 right?
