To think my 6 year old’s brain is fascinating?

My DS is 6 and suspected ASD. He’s got an extremely logical brain and a pretty photographic memory.
Just now he said to me and his dad:

Why are things beginning with ‘S’ always number six. We didn’t understand and asked what he meant. He said: “Saturn is the 6th planet and Saturday is the 6th day of the week”

Its like he sees patterns in everything!
