Your device’s screen starts shaking when you Google search the number “67” or the word sequence “6-7”. No, it isn’t a glitch, and certainly not a prank. This is an actual Easter egg inserted by Google, and you can test it out for yourself on mobile and desktop.

Google has participated in a viral internet challenge called the “6-7” or “67” meme. When you enter either of those search terms through the Google search bar (with a simple tap or by typing and hitting Enter), the entire results page starts shaking, making it seem like your screen is about to burst into dance. It’s Google’s attempt to tap into internet culture and viral memes.

Let’s unpack where this trend came from and why it’s everywhere.

What Is “67” or the “6-7 Trend”?

The meme originated from a 2024 song called “Doot Doot (6 7),” by the Philadelphia rapper Skrilla. The phrase itself doesn’t mean anything literal, and that’s exactly why it caught on.

The movement gained even more momentum when it was picked up by an NBA player who is 6 feet 7 inches tall, propelling it further into the worlds of sports and pop culture. Eventually, people began incorporating “67” into short videos, memes and even basketball games, particularly when a team scores 67 points.

To such a degree, in fact, that the phrase even reached cultural significance, with Dictionary.com calling “67” one of the year’s most important sayings.

What Does “67” Actually Mean?

Here’s the fun part: It doesn’t actually mean anything in particular.

According to Dictionary.com, people throw out “67” like a generic tease. It’s kind of “so-so or maybe this, maybe that”; it chooses from servers. More often, they just use it for fun.

As Steve Johnson of the Dictionary Media Group put it, the phrase functions like an inside joke. When people repeat it, they’re not just parroting a meme — they’re expressing a mood or feeling that is instantly recognisable to others on the web.

You can even try this at home in a few seconds. It’s compatible with phones, laptops and desktops.

2. Go to Google Search.

3. Type 67 or 6-7 into the search bar.

4. Press Enter.

5. When the screen loads, it should start shaking right away.

6. Your screen appears to be dancing, and it’s entirely intentional.

This small yet amusing Easter egg is a reminder of how deeply internet memes and pop culture pervade even the biggest tech companies. The “67” fad has now officially spilt from music and memes into other digital culture’s mainstream.
