Is there a connection between 666 and Solomon?

There is another question here that asks for the significance of the number 666. Most of the answers relate it to papacy, Nero or some other apocalyptic event. I have read several prophetic websites and they do the same thing. Sum up the numeric value of the alphabets in somebody's name. Multiply it by 2, divide by 3 and it comes to 666. However I was reading my Bible was surprised to find the following verse - > 1 Kings 10:14 The weight of the gold that Solomon received yearly was > 666 talents, > >2 Chronicles 9:13 The weight of the gold that Solomon > received yearly was 666 talents, My question is how did everyone over look this? Could it be that the number has nothing to do with papacy or Nero. There seems to be some sort of connection with Solomon. If so what is it?
