Here is a beginners doc that looks kinda useful:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7-Manual/getting-started-guide/s1-navigating-chmodnum.html

It has to do with the bits your setting. The 3 numbers (without the 
set-id stuff) are just conversions from binary.

Here is a conversion table...

perm  binary   base-10
rwx   111      7
rw-   110      6
r-x   101      5
r--   100      4
-wx   011      3
-w-   010      2
--x   001      1
