A Polish bus operator will change the number of its bus line 666, which goes to the town of Hel, after criticism from religious groups in the country.Bus 666 has been going to Hel for ten years, which some have found amusing as "666" is known as "the number of the beast" according to the Bible, associated with the devil, and "Hel" sounds similar to the English word for hell. According to the bus operator, on June 24th, they will change the number to 669 on the line going to Hel, after receiving complaints from Christian groups since the bus line was given its current number.However, the operator states that in the future, they may consider changing back to number 666 if there is a desire from the public to do so.
