I hadn't commented on this because it was not clear what you were 
really trying to do.
I suspected, but was not willing to assume, that you wanted to 
generate random 6 decimal digit numbers.
I think the intent of the remark was that instead of generating 
6 decimal digits separately you should just call (random 1000000),
and if you want leading zeros, then format the output as "~6,'0,d".
Or if you don't need the ones that start with zero you could do
 (+ 100000 (random 900000))

I still don't think I understand your intent.
