If it helps... no, that doesn't ring any general bells for me.
Of course, the number has had personal significance to me. Besides being the value of the letters T.'.O.'.T.'., it's the value of my general aspiration name within that Order (which is also my A.'.A.'. 5=6 name) - but that surely has noting to do with your solution.
And, long before that, there were light-weight observations, like "8 = Hadit, 11 = Nuit" sort of thing. (I read the "8, 80, 418 passage differently than you.)

ok. Here is what is behind my inquiry. This triangle was 'generated', not something I sat down and filled out. It was generated by a cipher and a key. The key is in the bottom of the pyramid, middle cell. The cipher is from instructions in Liber AL. When you put in a different key, all the values change. Check the key (78) in Sepher Sephiroth. Add the numbers in the LEFT side of the triangle, from top to bottom.

The Hebrew Qabalah will not work once the minor keys are applied. But there is another Qabalah that does work. I understand what this book is. It should not be able to exist in this universe. Much like the presence of the son of the demiurgos vampire slave god that has retarded human evolution for 2000 years. AL is the force to restore balance, freedom, liberty, and so much more. Crowley was right when he said it makes things like the invention of the wheel and electricity look insignificant by comparison.
