Well, that trumps me. I was going to bring up that Hannibal Lechter had 11 fingers.
The people around Devender Harne better be really careful.

He's gonna be great at base-25 math. Well, the Schoolhouse Rock for the 12 multiplication tables is about an alien with 12 toes and goes into base-12 match (1-9, dec, el, and do). I didn't really get it until years after seeing it. In any event, that could be useful with his 12 fingers, even though he has 13 toes. I always thought that it was too bad that we didn't have 4 fingers on each hand and 4 toes on each foot like a cartoon character. If we had, we'd all naturally be doing octal or hexidecimal mathematics, which would make computing a whole lot easier.

my HS science teacher claimed that 5 fingers was the genetic recessive - and 6 was the dominant
not sure how true that is - maybe some other Mendel fans could answer
