If only there were just 7 bijuu and the Sage of Seven Paths...

<p>The Six Paths refer to the "pure" buddhist paths. As pointed out by Konan, Nagato was the 7th path, the outer path. So in a sense, the Sage is the Sage of Seven Paths.
</p><p>The numbers 3,6, 7 and 9 occur quite frequently, but then again they are important numbers in many works. Naruto's three-tails is the maximum power he can control. Six Tails is the number he fights Nagato with (mirroring his 6 paths). Nine Tails is what he needs to break Chibaku Tensei. Three Tails is the biju that Rin bore. The Sharingan has three Tomoe, Sasuke's MS has six and his EMS has nine. His Rinnegan has six tomoe (reflecting his six paths, rather than control over 9 biju like the Rinne Sharingan). Itachi casts Tsukuyome on Sasuke three times in-story and he breaks the third. Three generations of three sannin. Three generations of three In0-shika-cho.

<p>Well, if I was in a random rampage over the numbers, 3, 6, 7 and 9, then I will get,
</p><p>Three generations of Rasengan, I guess, five nature styles and two yin and yang styles, which makes it seven, The Uchiha massacare happened at age six or seven of Sasuke. There are seven swordsmen, and if you count on the hidden villages, that were mainly shown, including the five great villages, there is the hidden Rain and Sound village that has any importance to the story, there are about ten Akatsuki members, and with Itachi being a spy, it makes it nine. There are atleast 7 or 9 Kekkei Genkei in Naruto, Naruto won the war at age seventeen, which makes it roughly seven or six years of being a ninja, Sasuke killed the Sixth Hokage(Danzo), Sasuke has nine tomoes from the Rinnegen and The Sharingan, just like Kaguya's nine tomoes, and the Nine tails. Naruto has roughly six or seven jutsus, there are about six important Uchiha characters in Naruto, and finally, there are six villains that want peace in the shinobi world, with Naruto fighting against them one by one.
