Ok. I read this in an Amazon Kindle Essay. The number 1138 appears in most of his movies as am homage to his first commercial film THX-1138. In Revenge of the Sith the order 66 which begins the purge of the Jedi is an allusion to 666 in the Apocalypse (Book of Revelation in the Bible). This number appears once in the Bible and the four digit verse is an anagram to 1138. Neat huh?

Interesting. As far as I remember, 1138 originally was either the number of an apartment or office that Lucas had.
