The book of numbers chapter 1

Quote

"There are many superstitions about the number one, and some even have a litle sense behind them. It is said that "if you break one egg, you will break a leg -a good rhyme to teach clumsy children to be careful with eggs."

Question
Who came up with all this ridiculously superstitions? Is One special only because it has rare properties? What does that mean? Amicable umbers? Who finds this connections between numbers?

Comment
This chapter was really interesting because the topics in the beginning were sort of ridiculously,about the superstition. It was a good hook. Also I notice that in chapters before it has mentioned that numbers are the fundamentals of the universe.
