Bible numerology isn’t always an exact science.

Then again, sometimes we don’t look hard enough.

6+7=13 (Depravity & Rebellion)

Also, the address of this verse adds up to 13 as well…Prov 6:16

6+1+6=13

The use of the nnumers six or seven doesn’t indicate the usual symbolical meaning of completion etc.

Here is the Hebrew usage that suggests emphasis, frequency etc, Simialar usages are found in Amos 1:3,7,9,11,13; 2:1,4,6 as also in Job 33:14.

Why does it start out with 6 (sin, evil) then go to 7 (completion, resurrection)? Why does God’s Word not start with 7 to begin with?
