The sacred-geometrical basis of the five revolutions of each whorl of the UPA/E8×E8 heterotic superstring
Because of its relevance to the question of why each whorl of the UPA twists exactly five times around the axis about which the particle spins, it is worth pointing out how the number 5 appearsnaturally in the embodiment by sacred geometries of superstring parameters such as the 240 E8 gauge charges, the 840 turns in the outer or inner halves of a whorl and the 1680 turns in a complete whorl. As explained earlier, the appearance of this number in the five disjoint 24-cells that comprise the 600-cell with 120 vertices (i.e., not only that 120 = 5×24 but also that a polychoron actually exists that has 24 vertices!) is stunning confirmation of the embodiment of these parameters in two similar polychorons sharing the same centre and orientation but of different size. The best way of refuting the sceptic's suggestion that this might be due to chance is to demonstrate that the same factor of 5 manifests in sacred geometries shown elsewhere in this website to be equivalent to one another because they exhibit the same holistic pattern, so that it manifests too often to be dismissed as coincidence.
