Someone has simply brought the million-dollar fake back to life.
This is a picture depicting a shark. This picture comes with the instruction “Enter the number 6 and see what happens to this shark”. And what happened? That’s right, you can read a lot of “6” comments under the picture. Bravo!
Just between you and me: Nothing happens if you leave a “6” as a comment here. Yes, one thing happens: you can tell who fell for this fake. But don't worry, anyone who comments with the number 6 is in good company, because the same fake was already floating around Facebook in June 2017.

At that time, however, one should comment with the number 8. Of course nothing happened back then, but well over 4 million people tried their luck.
Apart from this …
Then as now: The picture is also a fake. It is a 3D graphic. Compare Snopes
