How to count by 6251
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 6251, we count 6251, 12502, 18753, 25004, and so on.

6251
6251 + 6251 = 12502
12502 + 6251 = 18753
18753 + 6251 = 25004
25004 + 6251 = 31255
...

You can of course skip count by 6251 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 6251 Chart of the first 100 numbers to get you started.
