Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.

The chances are exactly the same as getting any other random number (assuming the '4 letters, two numbers' pattern is allowed in the random pool at all).

The probability of getting BOOG88 is the same as any other random series, but the chances of getting a random series that also has two extremist dogwhistles is very small

Which are also pretty small.
