about

"The maximum speed of analog data transmission over a POTS (Plain old telephone service) in the 20th century was 56 kbit/s."

"Plutarch[6] states that the Pythagoreans associated a polygon of 56 sides with Typhon and that they associated certain polygons of smaller numbers of sides with other figures in Greek mythology. While it is impossible to construct a perfect regular 56-sided polygon using a compass and straightedge, a close approximation has recently been discovered which it is claimed[7] might have been used at Stonehenge, and it is constructible if the use of an angle trisector is allowed since 56 = 23 × 7.[8]"

"According to Aristotle, 56 is the number of layers of the Universe - Earth plus 55 crystalline spheres above it.[12]"
