It isn't a random number, it's what the narration stated:
The Knight Commander Bercouli stood still as he raised his beloved sword.
Before him, there yawned an enormous chasm in the earth, over a hundred mel wide. He gazed far towards the horizon to his left and right, but there was no end to be seen. The depth was unpredictable; bits of rock here and there dropped into the abyss, yet no sign of impact against the bottom reached his ears.
Tens of seconds ago, this rift in the earth did not exist.
From the sky, variegated rays of color had poured down with a grandiose harmony, and as they touched the ground, it began to fracture.
There is absolutely no way to trigger such a groundbreaking change, not with one thousand Ascetics, or even ten thousand Ascetics. Perhaps not even the Highest Minister Administrator herself.
This is the power of a God, a holy act.
