Numbers were assigned to each person and tattood on their arm when entering Nazi concentration camps. The number 175113 is portrayed on Vladek's arm in the book.
As the Polish priest in the comic points out, the number starts with 17 which is considered a good omen. It also ends with 13, which is the age a Jewish boy becomes a man. Moreover, if you add the numbers together they add up to 18, which is "Chai" the Hebrew number of life. The number seemed to suggest that Vladek will survive.
It is also important to note that the number 18 plays an important role in Vladek's life. his marriage was on February 14, 1937, so 2 + 14 + 1937= 1953, which adds up to 18. The number 18 also appears on few other occasions.

Was the German Maus better than the American T30 Tank?
The German Maus was a super-heavy tank that was designed for armored superiority, fielding a 128 mm gun. But it was impractically slow (8 mph). The Maus was never completed.The T30 was only finished after the end of World War II but could have inflicted damage on a Maus with its oversized 155 mm gun. The T30 had lighter armor but was considerably faster at up to 22 mph.The T30 today is considered a "tank destroyer" and the Maus was not the largest tank that Nazi Germany designed. The biggest tank was called the Ratte (Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte) , five times the weight of the Maus at over 1000 metric tons. This proposed Super Tank would have mounted twin 280mm naval guns, as well as adopting marine diesel engines for its motive power.
