Think on it for a moment. Is it the same thing as having the phone number: 1?

Me: Hey girl, how about enlightening me with your phone number?

Girl: Oh sure, it's (215) 618-1505

Me: Pfft, I'm not going to remember that. Just take mine, here, it's 1.

One man answered: $14,000,000

A man named Saeed Khouri paid $14,000,000 for a license plate bearing the number 1. He "bought it because I want to be the best in the world".
