For those who don't get it, it's a reference from Les Miserables. One of the best/most famous musicals ever.

What was that mean? Are there any meaning?

Cliff notes explanation to this reference: in the play/book of les misérables a character named jean valjean is arrested for stealing bread(old France, harsh times) where he was given the number of 24601. This became a struggle for him because all the time in jail he was only known as that number, nothing more kind of making a prison identity out of it. Being an old book/play MANY other pop culture places reference this number if they need one to give a character in or going to jail. I know the simpsons made that reference too with sideshow bob’s mugshot (the character being of higher class and enjoying plays most definitely including les mis) but that’s all I know of.

Wait , you mean book instead of musical right?

 

[Ellie Scholes]

Holy shit I love les mis

The number is referencing Sarah Kerrigan's ghost number (No. 24601) from when she was with the Confederacy. The fact that the same number appears in Les Miserables is a coincidence.

"One of the best/most famous musicals ever."
When people refer to Les Misérables as a musical and not as a book. :/

The number given to the character "Jean Valjean" in the musical "Les Misérables". It has no meaning in the Novel written by Victor Hugo, but was a random number selected to rhyme with the rest of the musical. It is now a term to describe those who are punished extensively for a small crime and it is best used when randomly breaking out into song.
