Basically, any prime bigger than 3 always lands as 1 or 5 mod 6, and 1 or 2 mod 3. It’s like these numbers naturally follow a pattern, but as far as I know, they don’t have any special name because of it.
It reminds me of messing around with numbers when I usually roll d20 and noticing certain outcomes show up more often in specific situations—it feels random at first but actually has its own logic. Modular math is kind of like that.
