And here is the grouping for last digits. Looks like 0 difference is about
even with a difference of 8 and loses out to 2 4 and 6.

   /:~(~.d),.#/.~d=.10|2-~/\p:i.10000000
0 1737431
1       1
2 2333292
4 1994255
6 2221597
8 1713423

But looking at the first list (in the previous post) there is a spike in
the count for multiples of 6 difference. Weird!
