As a kid, I used to read about numerology in New Ingenue magazine.

Some links to the significance of the number 57 in Islam.

The Glorious Quran And The Number 57

The Last Verse in Bible vs. Quran - Chapter (57)

Volume 9, Book 84, Number 57: Narrated 'Ikrima: Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to 'Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn 'Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Apostle forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Apostle, 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'"

Apostasy is punishable by death. * Mohammed said, "Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him." Vol. 9:57

Quran (8:57) - "If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember."

Also consider that on 9/11, 19 hijackers managed to hit three locations. 19 x 3 = 57 Just sayin'.
