Nice pinball displays - I think it would even fit the Raven machine I have.

With 2 3-digit groups, my first thought is inside and outside temperature.  
Also useful as a timer (think big readable kitchen timer) or executive decision 
maker (20 vs 30) or "yES" and "no".  Passable nightlight, dimmable by turning 
off segments.  Art project?  Automated swear jar?  Big tyre pressure gauge?
