(for the record, I have no idea if this Social Security number exists, but if it does I would like to have it, but then everyone would know it, so maybe that's not such a good idea)

Yes, you would be special, because it would mean that you were the only person to receive that particular SSN. It would also mean that you were from Virginia, and were born on 18 August 1907, and died August 1985, and had the name Clarence Robertson. (See the very first hit when that SSN is typed into Google).
