The Christians at that time knew, for example, that 666 was the emperor.
I think it goes much deeper than this.
Revelation 13:18
Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six."
John is clearly indicating this is a riddle. "Let he who hath understanding (wisdom) count the number." The number is of a man.
Man is a carbon based being. And it so happens that carbon 12 is the most abundant of the carbon isotopes found on Earth and it has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. It's also the 6th element on the periodic table.
I think that when John says 666 is the number of man that is meant to be taken quite literally. The atomic weight of man is literally 666.

No, it was written to the people of the time, like every other book. Its not a code to the future. Its the words the people at the time needed.
