It is of course the 100th such number, a fact of arguable importance but nonetheless a fact.

I know that 247 is not prime, but the sum of it's digits are equal to 13?
So what?
Prime?
So?
Damn.... going off into the damn weeds.
So turn around. From whence you plucked 247 I know not, but the number doesn't occur in either the ciphertext or the plaintext, and I can see no sensible way to derive it from either of them.
Wherever you got it, when you started calculating digital roots you started throwing information away hand over fist, and you really don't have all that much information to spare.
