I've WRITTEN RFCs and don't have them memorized.  That being said, 
UNDERSTANDING key RFCs is important. If you can't easily read a 
protocol RFC at the general, not developer level, you may not be 
ready for the written.  Yes, I agree that finite state machines won't 
be explicitly tested on the written, but I think it's very hard to 
understand protocol behavior without a sense of FSMs, TLVs, etc.

Memorizing the numbers of RFCs?  Maybe, although it's foolish if 
Cisco expects that.  There even can be subtleties -- people usually 
say the first RFC describing IPv4 was RFC791, but that was the first 
practical one -- RFC760 came a little earlier.
