A number is called swappy if it is not a palindrome, but swapping two of its digits produces a six-digit palindrome. For example, the number 813381 is swappy, because we can swap the last two digits to get 813318, which is a palindrome.

How many swappy six-digit numbers are there?

There are C(4,2)*C(4,2)*(10 - 1) = 6*6*9 = 324 swappy numbers.
