I'll say it like that.

My calculation was based on calculation on 4×4, 6×6 and 8×8 Rubik's cube, because those are even numbers and they have only 4 little cubes (We should call them "cubies"), and 1,000 is also even.

The first exponent is based on 0, 2, 16, 20, 30, 42... sequence. It's because exponents on 4×4 is 2, 6×6 is 16 and so on. The formula to this sequence is (n^2)+n. So (1,000^2)+1,000 = 1,000,000+1,000 = 1,001,000.

The second exponent is based on 0, 6, 24, 54... sequence (Every number is +1, so 1, 7, 25, 55...). The formula to it is 6×(n^2). When in 4×4 is 7, so the n has to be equal to 1, so it's 6. AND then add 1 ... = 7. In 6×6 is n equal to 2, which is 24 + 1 and so on. Then I was adding 5, aaaand... ok now I know i did a mistake.

So that's the bad way how did I get to 5,940,151.

what is wrong with me
