Letters from the original named exchange prefixes are occasionally spotted on old signage in the city, but are increasingly rare. Many big band names played in the Hotel Pennsylvania's Café Rouge, including the Glenn Miller Orchestra. The phone number became the inspiration for the Glenn Miller 1940 Top 5 "Billboard" hit of the same name. The number was used in the Milli Vanilli song, "Baby Don't Forget My Number", near the end. The number also inspired the pun title "Transylvania 6-5000", used separately as titles for
Sometime (Glenn Miller song) 6101. The liner notes for the album by Brad McCuen described the song as follows: "Glenn and his close friend Chummy MacGregor, the band's pianist, collaborated on this quality pop song. It is a mystery why Glenn did not include this song among the hundreds he later recorded. Ray Eberle has the vocal." The version included was the April 18, 1939 performance at the Meadowbrook. There were five broadcast performances of “Sometime” by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra in 1939. It is Score 117 in the library and the composer credits are listed as Glenn Miller and John Chalmers MacGregor.
