Nothing freaky about it.
Based on the initial question there are only 9 possible answers which are (81,72,63,54,45,36,27,18, and 9). When you reach the symbol page note that ALL of these numbers have the exact same symbol associated with them. Thus, no matter what 2 digit number you choose all the resulting symbols are the same.

ATTENTION - SPOILER BELOW!

DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE HAVING FUN WITH IT.


OK - (15) possible mathematic answers to that math problem and they all have the same symbol. The symbols are scrambled each time but the same (15) answers will always have the same symbol. You can only get one of the (15) predetermined answers (if you do the math correctly).

Possible answers are always these: 0,1,9,19,27,36,45,50,53,54,63,72,77,81,9 5
